Bacon it’s so Delicious it’s Worth Ending friendships

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, March 22, 2017

Is there anything better than crispy, crispy bacon goodness? Unless you’re a vegetarian and then your life is just incomplete. In the last month and a half I’ve tried to mainly eat a vegan diet so the times I’ve been eating any meat at all let alone bacon are few and far between. Also my …

Desperate Housewives of the OC vs The Snot Monster

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, March 21, 2017

I definitely offended some desperate housewives today. One thing is for sure and that is you can take the mountain girl out of the mountains but you can’t take the mountains out of the girl. At 6 AM this fall morning I got up before the sun and slurped my coffee with some protein powder …

The Best Homemade Curry Powder

By Amber Woods on Sunday, March 19, 2017

Today was supposed to be the easy workout day. Than I chased our dog and another dog who was attacking her down a dirt road, throwing my mountain bike down in the middle of a dirt road. Meanwhile this crazy mutt’s seventy year old owner was kicking my ass beating me by a quarter mile trying …

Yesterday was St Patrick’s Day and that means corned beef is a must in our household! I spent my day at work and than driving home to our ski town in insane Los Angeles traffic though so making the corned beef dinner would have to wait until my day off. This morning most of our friends …

By Amber Woods on Thursday, March 16, 2017

Santa Anita Park is a fantastic place to spend St. Patrick’s Day! Where else in Southern California and you spend a Friday afternoon having a few beers and watching the ponies with the San Gabriel Mountains as a backdrop? First things first; It’s St Patrick’s Day; Everyone wants to bet on an Irish horse and …

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.
