Lysite (also Lysaght) is an unincorporated rangeland village in northeastern Fremont County, Wyoming, United States. It lies along local roads northeast of the city of Lander, the county seat of Fremont County. The Bridger Trail passed near Lysite on its way north to the gold fields of Montana in the 19th century. Currently, the village consists of a natural gas business, a highway maintenance facility, and a small store, all located at the rear of the village; an abandoned former store and post office edifice at the entry to the village; an abandoned small school in the middle of the village; and a few homes, both in use and abandoned, scattered in between.
