The 10 Best Halloween Ideas

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, October 18, 2017

I love Halloween. There is nothing more fun than a bunch of friends dressing up as child molesters, Macho Libre and politicians while drinking beer. Yea. Over the years and through out the various Halloween parties my friends have come up with quite a few awesome costumes. Halloween can have so many themes! We have …

#MakingAdriansbirthdaygreatagain

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, October 11, 2017

Last night at the camp we found ourselves asking important questions like is Donald Trump really black on the inside? And why do all the children want to eat his brain? Flash backwards in time six hours and you will find me driving winding mountain roads as slowly as I possibly can in my all wheel …

Eggs baked in Chili Oil with Smoked Salmon and Lemon Mascarpone Cream

By Amber Woods on Sunday, October 8, 2017

You know you had a fun and eventful weekend when it takes you two days of sitting on the porch watching thunder storms to recharge your batteries enough to even think of going for a run. Luckily for us Hurricane Hillary raging to the west like a bitch out of Arkansas is bringing our mountain …

8 Months and 4,000 Miles

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, October 4, 2017

It’s 11:30 at night and I am utterly exhausted from arguing. This was our first RV trip ever in our 1999 Fleetwood Storm and it had all the adventures that you would expect in the first RV trip. Having an accident leaving the driveway, smacking our electricity box and taking off the back bumper of the …

What to do Instead of Yosemite National Park

By Amber Woods on Monday, October 2, 2017

Each year thousands of annoying tourists clog the roads, the trails and the campgrounds of Yosemite National Park. Yosemite is such an awe-inspiring gorgeous place but the tourists and snow pigs just pack it like ants, throwing their trash out the windows of their mini vans and clogging up the beauty of this rugged landscape.  …

About Me

Hi y’all! I’m Amber, Big Bear’s local Hungry Mountaineer hiking nature guide. I grew up here in the San Bernardino National Forest and 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 hiking guide 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. I know the best hiking and biking trails in these mountains and I have chronicled most of my hikes and adventures in my blog on this website. Please get in touch is you have any questions.
