The winter that never ends. That's what it's felt like this week, with rain and snow instead of the sun and blue sky most valley residents are craving. That's supposed to change this weekend — it's supposed to be in the high 60s, low 70s in Eagle, just in time for the town's big spring hoorah — Party for the Planet, the Boneyard Boogie 10-kilometer footrace and the two-day Get Out Expo. “I started the event to kick off the summer season,” Shipp said. “I saw the need for an event that celebrates the reasons why we live here — biking, hiking, running, rafting. One of my big passions is mountain biking and that's a big push for us in Eagle, to let people know about our trail system, which is extensive and one of the best in the country.” • 10:30
