Mono Pass snowy Shenanigan’s in the eastern Sierras

By Amber Woods on Wednesday, October 26, 2022

The morning began with my pup trying to go for a swim in her favorite sweater at a tiny trailside lake above the Litle Lake’s Valley. The autumn colors were simply amazing here but it was not good weather for a swim. This was before it began snowing. I was not in shape to hike up …

Fall Food, Fashion and Reading Must Haves

By Amber Woods on Sunday, October 23, 2022

Here in the United States, we refer to autumn as fall because, well we are villagers. The maple and oak leaves fall from the deciduous trees therefore it is fall. Now give me my sugary Pumpkin Spice Latte said the girl in the red, white and blue Ugg’s and the MAGA hat. Americans are known …

What’s New Pussycat? Hiking with Cat’s Apparently

By Amber Woods on Thursday, October 20, 2022

The following rant was brought to you by the fall colors of the Eastern Sierras and all the dumbass millennials taking selfies with their domesticated house cats in Lundy Canyon. Because if you were a ninety-pound blond social media influencer with a purebred kitten why wouldn’t you put a Louis Vuitton collar on it and …

German-Style Potato Salad with extra Bacon

By Amber Woods on Monday, October 17, 2022

As someone who enjoys mostly a keto diet, German food is not exactly something I enjoy every day, but in the autumn months, I can’t say no to a brat, a knockwurst and especially nin to German-style potato salad. Especially if we are camping and we finally, after the longest, shortest drive ever finally made …

Galloping into Fall in the eastern Sierras

By Amber Woods on Friday, October 14, 2022

I just spent ten days walking in autumn leaves, taking selfies with my ridiculous dog and holding in twenty pounds of Butter Chicken belly fat in photos. It was a fine fall getaway to the eastern Sierras. You know it is finally falls weather when you can never find that perfect temperature. The pup and …

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.
