Black and Blue Huckleberry Steak Sauce

By Amber Woods on Sunday, September 24, 2023

A year ago when we were on vacation in the eastern Sierras we had no idea that by the following springtime, we would own a puppy who was practically perfect in every way. (Or as perfect as a puppy can be for our lifestyle) Who knew as we scrolled through Petfinder and I swiped right …

Plum Red Chile Pickle

By Amber Woods on Thursday, September 21, 2023

It’s Saturday evening in this ski town and our rural resort town is about to be slammed by Hurricane Hillary. Yes, a hurricane in southern California! Only in the year 2023, am I right? And (If you are conservative like I am) you thought Hillary could not do any more damage? Here on the West …

A Lake Superior Circle Tour Road Trip

By Amber Woods on Sunday, September 17, 2023

Canada can be such a confusing place. The Lake Superior Circle tour begins just north of Duluth, Minnesota but once you cross the border at Grand Portage, it definitely feels like you are in a foreign country. Not just because those wacky Canadians call their dollars loonies (Seriously, like you are in a cartoon network …

Plum and Ginger Chutney

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, September 13, 2023

“It’s my Birthday” And all I really want is a rainy day with a side of baking and maybe a good book to read while snuggling my pets. But wait! I just got the best gift of all! Mexico says I am welcome! It has been over a year since I applied for my global …

The Best off the Beaten Path Thrift Stores in North America

By Amber Woods on Thursday, September 7, 2023

This late July, our family drove close to 8,000 miles just so I could shop at some of the best thrift stores in North America. Okay, actually we planned a cross-country road trip full of family reunions, and meet-ups with long-lost friends. And obviously, there were stops at numerous Thoroughbred racetracks across the country. We …

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.
