Thanksgiving Brie smothered Breakfast Sandwiches

By Amber Wood on Friday, November 25, 2016

It was so cold last night my bones were aching. I have a bad back and issues with both my hips and I had hiked close to thirty miles in the last three days but I had kept my pack light. I simply did not understand why my body was so achy. As I tried …

A Presidential Embarrassment

By Amber Wood on Wednesday, November 23, 2016

Good morning Comrade Obama. Or should I say “Dobrue utro” (That would be Russian for good morning) Obama you only have fifty seven days left in the oval office. I realize your job is almost done now and you can probably spend your days playing golf and handing out prestiges awards to celebrities and basketball players. I …

The Brains or the Balls

By Amber Wood on Tuesday, November 22, 2016

Everyone needs that person to grow old with, even if it means that special someone is reminding you that you love goat’s balls. Growing old together means being there in the long run in good times and in bad. It means sticking together for the long haul and being there for each other for the …

She’s My Bitch and You Can’t Have Her

By Amber Wood on Saturday, November 19, 2016

I’m happy to say I did not have to defend Carly’s honor today all though shortly after dawn this morning I truly wondered if this silly dog was about to be coyote chow. We were hiking down towards Shadow Lake out of Agnew Meadows at a rather brisk rate as we had a very full …

Doe a Deer, 500 Deer

By Amber Wood on Friday, November 18, 2016

I never dreamed I would complain about to many deer but within the first ten minutes of getting out of the car at Big Pine Creek I had already seen two does on two separate occasions. And a snake; a big ass snake. It may not have been a rattler but I don’t care. I …

About Me
Amber Woodyard
Amber Woodyard

Hi y’all! I’m Amber, Big Bear’s local Hungry Mountaineer hiking nature guide. I grew up here in the San Bernardino National Forest and 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 hiking guide 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 [email protected] 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. I know the best hiking and biking trails in these mountains and I have chronicled most of my hikes and adventures in my blog on this website. Please get in touch is you have any questions.
