German-Style Potato Salad with extra Bacon

By Amber Woods on Monday, October 17, 2022

As someone who enjoys mostly a keto diet, German food is not exactly something I enjoy every day, but in the autumn months, I can’t say no to a brat, a knockwurst and especially nin to German-style potato salad. Especially if we are camping and we finally, after the longest, shortest drive ever finally made …

Galloping into Fall in the eastern Sierras

By Amber Woods on Friday, October 14, 2022

I just spent ten days walking in autumn leaves, taking selfies with my ridiculous dog and holding in twenty pounds of Butter Chicken belly fat in photos. It was a fine fall getaway to the eastern Sierras. You know it is finally falls weather when you can never find that perfect temperature. The pup and …

Today we took the old lady on a leisurely stroll through the fall leaves. Some might call it a hike. After a stroll through autumn, or a hike or whatever you may call it, the old lady loves some homemade dog treats, especially if they are full of homegrown pumpkin. Once upon a time, my …

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.
