Surviving Wild Fire Season 2020

By Amber Woods on Thursday, September 10, 2020

It’s wildfire season, again, here in southern California. On the chilly east coast, y’all may refer to the first week of September as fall as you pull on your comfy sheepskin Ugg boots and order a pumpkin spice frappalatte from the local Starbucks. Here in California, in the valleys down below my mountain home, Californians …

Keto Gluten-Free Zucchini and Ricotta Meatballs

By Amber Woods on Sunday, September 6, 2020

What on earth do keto-friendly meatballs have to do with driving the back roads of a jungle in India? It takes balls to drive in India! And I for one, even though I did get an international driver’s license for this trip, will leave that to the professionals. I was happy to sit back, hold …

The Hungry Mountaineer’s 5a.m. Tour of Dubai

By Amber Woods on Monday, August 31, 2020

Friends of mine love to say Dubai smells like oil, my first impression was it smelled like cigarettes. It was three a.m. and I was awake and in a country that smelled like dirty eighties cigarettes; I was waking up in Dubai. This was my first opinion of Dubai. After that first five minutes we …

Gluten-Free Almond Zucchini Cake with Fresh Pineapple and Candied Ginger

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, August 18, 2020

When you are a foodie that lives in a secluded mountain resort town during a pandemic life can get a little tough. I’m not the type to frequent Mcdonald’s and Taco Bell and those are popular restaurant options in this ski town. I live in a gorgeous pine forest, miles of hiking trails, alpine lakes …

Hike. Jeep. Repeat. Big Bear's only outdoor adventure guide
Amber Woods
Amber Woods

Hi y’all! I’m Amber, Big Bear Lake’s local Hungry Mountaineer hiking nature guide. I grew up here in the San Bernardino National Forest. I have basically been out exploring hiking trails and enjoying the wilderness as long as I could walk. I have had some amazing adventures out here in the gorgeous San Bernardino Mountains over the years. As a alpine adventure enabler who is passionate about the wilderness, I love to share my knowledge of our vast trail system with vacationers who also love the great outdoors. Looking to book a hiking excursion? Email me at Hungrymountaineer@gmail.com for the best locals-only hikes available in this mountain wilderness. I am passionate about finding my balance in life – healthy living, great food, outdoor fitness, traveling adventures, working hard and my unbridled love for racehorses and naturally, gambling. When I’m not exploring news trails or betting on the ponies you can find me either coming up with healthy new recipes or blogging about the adventures my trail pup and I had in the wilderness this week. I have spent most of my life exploring what these mountains have to offer and locals would call me an expert and a backcountry Snack Sherpa. I know the best hiking and biking trails in these mountains and I have chronicled most of my hikes and adventures on this website. Please get in touch is you have any questions.
