E is for…Easy Kung Pao Chicken Stir Fry

By Amber Woods on Friday, April 5, 2013

    I do a lot of intense cooking with fifteen different ingredients and all kinds of goat cheeses.    Some days I like to take just a simple pre made frozen meal and make it a little better and maybe a little healthier by adding more veggies.   Have you tried Trader Joe’s frozen Kung Pao Chicken?   …

D is for a Deer, a Female Deer

By Amber Woods on Thursday, April 4, 2013

   Today might have been a Monday.   I was running late.   I guess it really was not that horribly late considering all I had to do before work at three was go for a run and drop off my grandma’s present for her eighty third birthday.   Still, I was about an hour behind where I …

B is for… A Day in Big Bear

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, April 2, 2013

    I had such a gorgeous day off work running all over Big Bear.    It was a awesome day off even if I was annoyed with myself for a while, as my phone battery died about ten miles into my run and I lost all mapping capabilities. High altitude cactus    This was annoying …

About Me

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.
