Mangalorean Style Chicken Ghee Roast

By Amber Woods on Sunday, February 6, 2022

I have a good laugh anytime I read the words easy chicken marsala or easy paleek paneer. There is nothing easy about authentic Indian food! As someone who took three months and multiple tries to perfect the absolute best keto-friendly chicken ghee roast I know this for a fact. Did you grind the spices for …

The Sarah Palin; A Keto Alaskan Salmon Roll and Other Keto Sushi Treats

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, February 1, 2022

I live in a sushi-free world. There are acres of scenic trails for my pup and I to run. There are tall alpine mountains for us to climb. We even have azure blue waters to kayak all summer long. But there is nowhere in a hundred-mile radius to get a good sashimi lunch. I might …

Thai Bone Broth with Kaffir Lime and Lemongrass

By Amber Woods on Sunday, January 23, 2022

Chilis, kaffir lime leaves and lemongrass. And don’t forget the duck necks and beef bones! Sounds so delicious, you would think you are beachside in Phuket, but wait, this aromatic soup is being whipped up in my Big Bear Lake mountain kitchen at just over 6,000 feet! We may be underneath the Jeffrey pines in …

A Peaceful Snow Play Experience in Big Bear Lake California

By Amber Woods on Friday, January 21, 2022

I grew up in a mountain forest building snow forts and eight-foot-tall snowmen. When I was a kid, well no, we didn’t walk to school six miles uphill both ways but we often trudge through two feet of snow in hand-me-down snow pants to get to the local bus stop. Snow play in Big Bear …

Impossibly Good Not Impossible Black Bean Burgers

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, January 18, 2022

I’m a little terrified of beans as my body hates them but I also do love black beans. Beans are so heart-healthy and high in fiber. They are not a food group I enjoy running from in terror, yet I usually do. But I can’t resist these black bean burgers. As more people are trying …

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.
