By Amber Woods on Tuesday, April 24, 2012

   Last week I complained about the spectacular heat while I was running at Manzanita Flats and it was only seventy five degrees at the time. Since then the temperatures have soared to near one hundred degrees. Its been hot; I’ve complained… alot.    The other night driving home from work at midnight I saw some …

Welcome back to Cougar Crest

By Amber Woods on Monday, April 23, 2012

    You know what pisses me off almost as much as rattle snakes?    People who put fake plastic snakes in the middle of trails.    Not funny.    Not funny even if your a twelve year old boy.    No one will be laughing when I almost have a heart attack jumping over a fake plastic snake on …

When it rains, it pours

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 21, 2012

I thought I was accomplishing things today. And then my garbage disposal fell out of the sink. Great, that means time to get on the phone with one of the most popular Plumbers in Highlands Ranch. Johnny was over helping me assemble the book shelf that I had just bought, plus I had just taken …

A Sweaty Mess

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, April 18, 2012

     If I’m porch sittin’ that means it must be spring time!    Just to clarify, porch sittin’ means it’s seven A.M. and I am sitting on my porch swing in the mountain sunshine, drinking a latte, wearing my bathrobe (hood up, uni bomber style) and talking to my cats.    Oh yeah, I’m that scary neighbor …

A Day at the Zoo; Porcopine Man Smell, Foxy Foxes and holding Animals that are Terrified of me

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, April 17, 2012

The redtail hawk writes songs across the sky,There’s music in the waters flowing by,And you can hear a song each time the wind sighs,In the golden rolling hills of California. Words from one of my favorite Kate Wolf song . I always wonder when I’m hiking how Cooper Hawks look different from Red Tailed Hawks. …

Hike. Jeep. Repeat. Big Bear's only outdoor adventure guide
Amber Woods
Amber Woods

Hi y’all! I’m Amber, Big Bear Lake’s local Hungry Mountaineer hiking nature guide. I grew up here in the San Bernardino National Forest. 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 alpine adventure enabler 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 Hungrymountaineer@gmail.com 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 and a backcountry Snack Sherpa. I know the best hiking and biking trails in these mountains and I have chronicled most of my hikes and adventures on this website. Please get in touch is you have any questions.
