Mo and I have so much in common and Kentucky Derby Party Recipes

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 23, 2011

     Its almost Kentucky Derby day. In the bluegrass of Kentucky spindly legged baby foals are a few months old right now. They are galloping at full throttle through the lush bluegrass. In no time they will be making the rounds  through the auction rings at Keenland to the tune of a couple million, sons and daughters …

…And then I ate ALOT of Crab legs!

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 9, 2011

     The best thing about vacationing in Pismo Beach is when you can get there without hitting a deer, or two, or three. Also the beach is awesome and I may have eaten my weight in crab legs; its seems plausible.     I live in the mountains, up a long winding highway that deer love to …

Recovering, and a recipe for Crab Omelets

By Amber Woods on Tuesday, April 5, 2011

     Last time I wrote a blog it was a month ago, and I squeaked it out between running to and fro from my downstairs bathroom. The good news is after  two weeks of being violently ill, I am finally healthy again! The bad news in all of this is there is no way I …

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 [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.
