🌞 70° & Trivia Night? Here’s What’s Happening in Boulder

Boulder’s starting the week with a weather rollercoaster – sunshine, gusty winds, and near-record temps. Fire danger is high, so be mindful outdoors. On the events side, we’ve got everything from hip-hop royalty at eTown to trivia, open mic, and a Monday night climbing meetup. Let’s dive in.
