Ode to a Shitty Snowshoe

By Amber Woods on Monday, February 26, 2024

As Big Bear Lake’s hottest hiking guide (Because I’m so sweaty all the time) snowshoes are my business. Sure I would love to purchase two hundred dollar MSR snowshoes for my clients to rent but it’s just not cost-efficient for me as an outfitter. So this week I found a deal and accidentally purchased shitty …

Cinnamon Kahlua Iced Latte

By Amber Woods on Friday, February 23, 2024

Do you know who isn’t going to waste a ridiculous amount of money on a stupid expensive Stanley tumbler? This travel blogger! I didn’t purchase my awesome Jeep Trailhawk with cash by making frivolous purchases. And yes Kiki, that is what a coffee cup that is the same price as a car payment is! Here …

Keto Mississippi Mud Soup

By Amber Woods on Monday, February 19, 2024

When I think of the mighty Mississippi, I think of our summertime adventures and our travel to Memphis Tennessee. And when I think about travel to Memphis Tennessee, I think about how un-Godly sweaty I was for the three days we spent in Memphis last summer. I’m sure I must be the only person in …

By Amber Woods on Thursday, February 15, 2024

There are so many rules when it comes to healthy eating. Imagine this list to the tune of the Paul Simon classic, 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover. Switching to konjac noodles is one healthy choice we have made in our household here in 2024. Don’t eat tofu, Lulu Drink green tea, Bea Put coconut …

Keto Gluten-Free Dark Chocolate Cookie Delights

By Amber Woods on Sunday, February 11, 2024

I’m really terrible at doing keto. I can go three, or four days tops with no carbs in my life. Then I end up inhaling half a bag of dark chocolate cookies from the freezer. Until now. I discovered a sugar-free dark chocolate cookie recipe.  The baker in me has found a new calling this …

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.
