Pen Pals

By Amber Wood on Sunday, January 20, 2013

    When I was a kid I had pen pals.    I didn’t have a typical childhood with video games and tons of toys and watching lots of T.V.     I spent my free time reading books and playing outside in the mud with my brothers. I loved to write and draw and writing letters to …

Club Escort

By Amber Wood on Wednesday, January 16, 2013

from 2000 to 2005 I drove a cherry red Ford Escort. It was my first new car. Okay it wasn’t brand new, but it had just over 10,000 miles on it and it was a real steal as it was a vehicle with a salvage title and I paid next to nothing for it. When …

All the Pretty Horses

By Amber Wood on Saturday, January 12, 2013

   Sometimes peoples stupidity just amazes me.  Today I had to explain to a man the difference between a sheep and a goat.   Because he thought they were the same animal.   Than the same man was telling me how he’s pretty sure that a cat and a dog have been bred to make a new …

My Year in Review

By Amber Wood on Wednesday, January 9, 2013

     I wrote one hundred and eighty blogs in 2012.     Sweet Jesus, how on earth did I have time to work more than forty hours a week and train for half marathons?    In November alone, I entered a blog-a-thon where you had to blog every day of November; that was a huge challenge 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.
