Rose Cookies, a Christmas Baking Adventure

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, December 2, 2020

Spending the Christmas season in India in 2016 may have spoiled me for life. I discovered Rose Cookies and ate my body weight in Butter Chicken and Parathas. I absolutely loved our India Holiday adventure. Even when we were stuck in an India airport for eleven hours rewriting The 12 days of Christmas and coming up with …

Small Town Crazy Cat Lady

By Amber Woods on Friday, November 27, 2020

Calling a small-town ski resort community my home has some distinct advantages. Most of the time I adore being hours away from the smoggy metropolis of Los Angeles. I can only take the concrete jungle of southern California in very small doses. Life in Big Bear Lake in the pine forest can make me feel …

A Hungry Mountaineer’s Anglo Indian Thanksgiving

By Amber Woods on Sunday, November 22, 2020

If there is one thing my boyfriend and I both love it’s throwing a good party. Obviously, we love to host Thanksgiving. Pre COVID-19 we were known to have friends over for a home-cooked authentic Indian dinner every few weeks. Now in this time when hanging out with friends and family is basically frowned upon …

Moroccan Lamb Stew with Cinnamon and Golden Raisins

By Amber Woods on Thursday, November 12, 2020

Late October in California will usually find us exploring the eastern Sierras in our motorhome. Autumns falling aspen leaves really don’t have a lot to do with cooking Morrocan food but a spicy Moroccan stew is a perfect supper for a chilly night camping with your closest friends. I am now newly obsessed with cooking …

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.
