Route description
editWyoming Highway 233 begins its southern end at U.S. Route 189 at the northern city limits of Kemmerer. WYO 233 passes the Island Golf Club as it turns north from US 189. Almost immediately after, WYO 233 leaves Kemmerer and enters the small unincorporated community of Frontier. Just past Frontier, Airport Road (former WYO 234) is intersected at 1.10-mile (1.8 km) and provides access to the Kemmerer Municipal Airport. Past the airport spur, Highway 233 travels in a more northwesterly direction toward the Viva Naughton Reservoir which it reaches at just over 14 miles. Running along the east side of the reservoir, Highway 233 reaches its northern terminus at Lincoln County Route 305 (Ham Forks Road) at 19.29-mile (31.0 km). CR 305 continues beyond Lake Viva Haughton and leads to the Commissary Ridge of the Bridger-Teton National Forest.[2][3]
