Gluten-Free Dark Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

By Amber Woods on Sunday, October 1, 2023

Apparently, I just had to go back to the place where I hurt my ankle to heal my ankle. Ah, the magical effect of the Eastern Sierra’s. The eastern Sierras feel even more magical on a snowy fall day as the morning light is shining upon the amber aspen trees. Especially when I’m not limping …

Pickled Pepper and Cold Cuts Keto Salad

By Amber Woods on Thursday, September 28, 2023

Should I really be wearing a bathing suit after five days of vacation inhaling every deep-fried food I could find in the south? Well, it’s hard to help yourself from dunking in that gorgeous lake over yonder when it’s nearing one hundred degrees outside with seventy, yes seventy percent humidity. Spending five days inside this …

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 …

Great Lakes, Tiny Towns, and Giant Mosquitoes: A Lake Superior Circle Tour

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 …

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.
