By Amber Wood on Monday, February 19, 2024

When I think of the mighty Mississippi, I think of our summertime adventures and our travel to Memphis Tennessee. And when I think about travel to Memphis Tennessee, I think about how un-Godly sweaty I was for the three days we spent in Memphis last summer. I’m sure I must be the only person in …

Keto Gluten-Free Dark Chocolate Cookie Delights

By Amber Wood on Sunday, February 11, 2024

I’m really terrible at doing keto. I can go three, or four days tops with no carbs in my life. Then I end up inhaling half a bag of dark chocolate cookies from the freezer. Until now. I discovered a sugar-free dark chocolate cookie recipe.  The baker in me has found a new calling this …

A Delightful Buffalo Stew

By Amber Wood on Friday, February 2, 2024

Snowshoeing all morning has me craving some decadent vidals for our evening meal. A snowy afternoon in the mountains means you just need to have a hot pot of buffalo stew simmering on the stovetop all afternoon. The west may have been won on beef, but once you try buffalo meat in your stew, I …

About Me
Amber Woodyard
Amber Woodyard

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 [email protected] 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.
