Walked right past the access road to Faraway Mtn on High Ridge Trail, thinking, hmmmm, there's no sign, so why do I feel like that must be it? Smile if you've been there.
Apparently the problem is trails go on and off CITC property, so they don't sign, or show the trail on their maps, if it's not on their estate.
I did find this map, which allowed me to figure it out, I think. I'll hike the loop again in reverse, and pick it off.
