Rose and Indian Food; The Anglo-Indian Fusion you were looking for!

By Amber Woods on Thursday, April 27, 2023

Is there anything better than going on a fifteen-mile ass-kicking hike than having your sexy Indian boyfriend prepare you a south Indian Karnataka dish like Chicken Ghee roast? As you sweat up those mountain passes, calves burning, sweat dripping into your sports bra know there is some cold rose in the motorhome camp back in …

Anglo-Indian Spiced Okra with Turmeric and Kashmiri Chili Powder

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, April 25, 2023

On my last night camping in the wilds of nature in California, I awoke at midnight to hysterical male voices shrieking outside my tent. Yes, there was a bear in the camp. Because bears can tell when dumb-dumbs are visiting from the cities. Why on earth would you plan a camping trip to the bear …

Garam Masala Meatloaf with Indian Ketchup

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 22, 2023

Jaw-droppingly gorgeous days in the mountains like today make me have one thought. I fucking hate California. How can I live in such an unworldly beautiful place and not be able to enjoy it because all of my hidden wilderness spaces are covered in graffiti? Welcome to life in 2023. Criminals do what they want, …

Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 15, 2023

I just snowshoed up a mountain with my brand-new adventure dog! Thank God I have some homemade gluten-free Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake packed in my backpack! Snowshoeing is always so much harder than just regular hiking, throw in two to four feet of snow, breaking trail and struggling to the top of a mountain peak, …

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.
