A Tree-Loving Photographer's Dream! - Amber is not only friendly and knowledgeable, but she also recognizes the beauty of the surroundings and happily allows time to pause and take photos, pointing out particularly good spots. As a photographer, I greatly appreciated this! I highly recommend this and any other tour by her.

Amber knows the mountains! Great hike - Amber really knows the mountains! She’s very friendly and very informative. She has lived in the mountains almost her whole life. Turns out all of the hiking trails around Big Bear are closed due to the Line fire recently in Running Springs. We did not know that and we were lucky enough to book with Amber who knew where there were some hiking trails open for us to take a nice two hour hike. Otherwise we would have not had any idea where to go or how to do a hike. The hike was a good pace however she knew where to stop for some good photo opportunities and a break here and there to grab some water. We got to see many of the leaves changing although she says it’s better mid October and we were the first weekend in November. I highly recommend her and her tour. Her tours are dog friendly and family friendly as well. !!

The BEST way to see fall colors in Big Bear! - If you're visiting big bear and you want to see some fall colors Amber's hike is absolutely the way to do it. She took me to the best spots with beautiful golden trees that I never would have found on my own. I took so many pictures, it was so beautiful. And besides knowing the best spots Amber knows all about the plants and animals and history of the area and talking with her makes the hike so much more immersive and memorable. I highly recommend this hike with Amber!

Hiking with a Local! - I am SO GLAD I booked with Amber! She grew up in these mountains and knows every inch of them. So nice to experience nature with somebody who knows where they are, safety factors and interesting facts about the area in which you are hiking. I'll definitely be booking again🙌

MUST GO! - Wow, does Amber know the best spot for fall colors! We came to Big Bear just to see the changing colors and noticed most of the forest is pine. When we booked this experience with Amber, she told us she knew where the fall colors were and she was spot on. The trail was so beautiful. I got so many awesome photos of my dogs in the autumn leaves. She even knew what time in the morning the sun would be perfect to get the best photos.
