By Amber Wood on Friday, September 19, 2014

      What one event would absolutely not be on my bucket list?       Going on a date with Barack Obama.       I could skip it.       I would rather go the Kentucky Derby or climb Manchu Pichu.       And than the other night this happened. …

The F Word

By Amber Wood on Thursday, September 18, 2014

      The hills are a dry, dusty dirt mess as I head out of town. This drought is destroying our once beautiful national forest. Years ago when I commuted this mountain highway to work in the spring time the hills would be a bright and vibrant green reminding me of Ireland, a foreign …

I Survived the 80s; Riding in the Beds of Pickup Trucks, Gluten and Processed Foods

By Amber Wood on Tuesday, September 16, 2014

Romney Hates Fido!

By Amber Wood on Saturday, September 13, 2014

    I voted for Mitt Romney a few years ago.      I’m not proud of that fact but in 2012 what was my other choice; vote for Obama and a life time of Obama Care ahead for our great nation?     Hell no; Mitt might have not been the best choice but 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.
