Route description

WYO 132, known locally as the Blue Sky Highway,^[2] lies entirely within the Wind River Indian Reservation.^{[citation needed]}. Its southern terminus is north of Lander at US 287. WYO 132 proceeds toward Ethete, approximately 7 miles (11 km) to the north.^[1] Before reaching Ethete, the highway intersects 17 Mile Road, which turns into WYO 137 east of the junction. WYO 132 continues north to its northern terminus at US 26, for a total length of 17.43 miles (28.05 km).^[1] This intersection is also the southern terminus of WYO 133.^[1]

History

Major intersections

The entire route is in Fremont County. ^[1]
