Why You Should Never Give Yourself a Sponge Bath While Drinking

By Amber Woods on Saturday, October 10, 2015

Why you should never give yourself a sponge bath while drinking. I am officially the dirty camper. I thought before on hiking trips those days and days of camping fun that I knew what being the dirty camper was. Even though I have jumped in crisp cold alpine lakes and frolicked beneath water falls nearly …

Welcome to the Future

By Amber Woods on Friday, October 9, 2015

When I was a little kid I had a tiny black and white t.v. with a knob that fell off. In the late eighties and early nineties this was how we changed the channel. This crappy old eighties television set was a big deal. Being that I was the oldest child I had my own …

Wanderlust

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, October 7, 2015

Wanderlust. We all have it inside of us. Sometimes its just the intense need to get out of the city and go for a drive. If only my wanderlust was as simple as that. I’m sitting here on a cold and rainy autumn day. I just brewed up an Earl Grey lavender latte with coconut …

By Amber Woods on Monday, October 5, 2015

I was down at the beach a few weeks ago and I was freezing. It was getting into the evening hours and Nordstrom was having their phenomenal anniversary sale and fall was slowly approaching any ways, so I thought maybe I will buy a sweater. Before I continue this story you should probably know that …

Raspberry Apricot Cookie Cobbler

By Amber Woods on Saturday, October 3, 2015

The track was fast. I know, because I ran it that morning. It was Santa Anita Derby day and my boyfriend and were waiting patiently in the stands with 54,668 other horse racing fans for the big race and for the (literally) big horse, Dortmund . My boyfriend is a giant fan of the big 17 hand …

About Me
Amber Wood
Amber Wood

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 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. 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.
