Nothing but Brothels and Donkeys

By Amber Woods on Thursday, October 24, 2013

     We were flying through the vast Nevada desert Listening to the boss Bruce Springsteen blast through the cars speakers. Out here in Northern Nevada there was absolutely nothing to see for hours but but whore houses and donkeys.      Where else in the United States can you say that? Northern Nevada is a …

Ankle Pain Snake Ow

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, October 22, 2013

I smell bad, real bad. I just ran fifteen miles and now I’m sitting at Urgent Care wondering if my ankle is broken. Lucky I knew where I was going, otherwise I might have been sat searching for the nearest Urgent Care places. At least I know that there are loads of Urgent Care places …

In Alaska with Five Hundred Dead Mosquitos

By Amber Woods on Friday, October 18, 2013

     When we had arrived in Anchorage a week earlier we had looked like the poster children from sunny southern California, our tans, white teeth and sandals clearly making us stand out amide the sweat pants, and work boots of the locals. Now after spending three days in the bush, well we definitely smelled like …

Altitude Sickness; It’s Really Not so Fun

By Amber Woods on Thursday, October 17, 2013

   A friend asked me today if I had ever had shin splits with all the running I do.   No but I’ve had Shin Shits!   Haaahhaaahaaa!    Oh wait, is that only funny to me?    I guess it’s funny now, because I’m wearing clean pants.     It was not funny when I was twenty two years old, …

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.
