Just another day in the mountains, with many injuries

By Amber Wood on Thursday, July 14, 2011

Yesterday I had a sneaking suspicion I f’ed up my car getting here….. And then this happened….. Yes, that is hail and heavy, heavy rain. Gotta love those mountain summer Thunderstorms! Luckily we found this rocky ledge to hide under and try to keep our cameras and our beers dry. Ten Minutes later the sun …

The Firestone Tire Incident

By Amber Wood on Tuesday, July 12, 2011

     Lets call this the Firestone tire incident. Do you remember in 2000 when Firestone recalled 6.5 million  tires? I remember it clearly as I was a victim of quite a few of these explosive tires. News flash! When a company recalls a product you buy and use, such as tires, check your vehicle and see …

La La La LAX to Las Vegas

By Amber Wood on Friday, July 1, 2011

I’m not a fan of LAX. Last time I flew it was out of quiet, quaint Long Beach Airport. Okay maybe quaint isn’t quite the right word. Is anything really quaint in lovely ghetto and smog infested Long Beach, California? California’s Long Beach Airport was so quiet and small when I flew out to Colorado …

It’s raining Ketchup!

By Amber Wood on Thursday, June 23, 2011

      I’ll always remember the great ketchup debacle of 2011. I knew there was a reason I despise catchup. It doesn’t really make sense, I mean I love vinegar, I love tomatoes, why can’t I love ketchup?  I never had a real good reason to give on why, no, I would not be needing ketchup for my …

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.
