The walk route is two loops. The first went through residential to the cemetery and back.

Central Baptist Church

Right before you enter the cemetery if you look off toward the highway you will see this steel cutout of a stagecoach. From 1858 to 1861, the Butterfield Overland Stageline provided passenger and mail service to Bronte.

The walk route includes a loop in this old cemetery.

This is the older section with metal fences.

Newer section of the cemetery.

When we started the second loop we took a slight detour to capture Superman.
