Do you know of Hilight ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Hilight. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Hilight.<1>

Our sources for Hilight (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Hilight other than they indicate that Hilight would be found somewhere in Campbell County, Wyoming.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened in 1916 and closed in 1937.
