The western terminus is in Orin, Wyoming, at an interchange with Interstate 25 (I-25). Its eastern terminus is in Downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[1] US 18, however, runs concurrent with other U.S. Highways from its western terminus to Mule Creek Junction, Wyoming. US 18 is one of the original U.S. Highways of 1926. The US 18 designation was originally proposed for a road in Michigan from Grand Haven east to Detroit. This roadway was eventually designated as US 16.

Wyoming
Template:Attached KML In Wyoming, US 18 runs concurrent with US 20 from I-25 to Lusk, where US 18 branches off to run concurrently with US 85. At the unincorporated community of Mule Creek Junction in northeastern Niobrara County, US 18 leaves US 85. This Script error: No such module "convert". stretch from US 85 to the South Dakota border is the only segment of US 18 in Wyoming which is not cosigned with another highway. Running for nearly Script error: No such module "convert"., US 18 has a speed limit of Script error: No such module "convert". with the exception of its ending terminus at Orin and the portion throughout Lusk.[5]

The Oyate Trail is one of the names given (in the late 1990s) to the section of US 18 traveling across South Dakota from I-29 east of Vermillion to Maverick Junction.[6]
Named in an attempt to encourage more tourism traffic through the lands of various Indigenous peoples in southern South Dakota, it passes through or near the Yankton Sioux, Rosebud, and Pine Ridge Indian reservations, crossing the James River Valley, the Missouri River near Fort Randall Dam, portions of Pine Ridge, and the High Plains of South Dakota, connecting the urban areas of the middle Missouri River with the Black Hills.Template:Fact
Portions of the road were known as the Grant Highway, Black Hills Sioux Trail, and part of the Omaha, Rosebud and Black Hills Highway, as well as the Custer Battlefield Trail.Template:Fact
Towns along the road include Gregory, Winner, Olivet, Mission, Martin, Batesland, and Pine Ridge. Nearby towns and locales of interest include Rosebud (capital of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe) and Wounded Knee.Template:Fact

US 18 enters Iowa via a Big Sioux River crossing northeast of Beloit. It overlaps US 75 for Template:One2a near Hull and US 59 for Template:One2a near Sanborn. It then overlaps US 71 through Spencer. US 18 passes through Emmetsburg before intersecting US 169 at Algona. US 18 then continues east through Garner before intersecting I-35 in Clear Lake. After a brief concurrency with I-35, US 18 continues as a freeway, bypassing Mason City to the south. At Charles City, US 18 becomes a rural two-lane highway again, except for a brief concurrency with the US 63 bypass of New Hampton. After passing through West Union, it turns northeast and joins US 52 at Postville, then leaving US 52 about Script error: No such module "convert". east of Monona before crossing the Mississippi River into Wisconsin via the Marquette–Joliet Bridge in the city of Marquette.Template:Fact
US 18 is the designated route of the Avenue of the Saints between Clear Lake and Charles City.Template:Fact
Wisconsin
Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". Upon entry into Wisconsin at Prairie du Chien, US 18 is the terminus for State Trunk Highway 60 (WIS 60). The two routes are then concurrent until Bridgeport where WIS 60 splits off to the east and US 18 crosses the Wisconsin River and turns east on the other side. The route joins the US 151 expressway in Dodgeville and the two remain concurrent east to Madison. US 18 follows US 12 south of Madison and passes through or around Cambridge, Jefferson, and Waukesha before terminating in Milwaukee at the junction of East Michigan Street and Lincoln Memorial Drive in downtown.Template:Fact
