Mango Mocktails of Utah

By Amber Wood on Thursday, July 6, 2023

Sometimes nothing can seem easy in this motorhome lifestyle. Why is the toilet leaking? Why is that tire hissing? Why won’t the puppy poop? Why can’t I buy tequila in any state northwest of California? You may not be able to purchase a mango margarita, how about a Mango Mocktail? We left our mountain resort …

An Ode to a Toad

By Amber Wood on Thursday, June 29, 2023

It’s hard to know for sure when is the right time to let an old car go. But when her backseat smells like urine, that might be a sign. Our twenty-year-old Suzuki RV tow car didn’t always smell like urine. Believe me, Suzy the Suzuki lets out some interesting old car scents and farts but …

By Amber Wood on Tuesday, June 20, 2023

Keto is not easy when you spend your days being athletic. I feel like I’m ravenous all the time and all I do is eat cheese all day long! One thing is for sure about keto and that is my body is burning through all the aged chorizo, Jarslburg cheese and hard-boiled duck eggs faster …

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.
