Route Description
The highway begins at a diamond interchange on I-70/US-89 at exit 25 on the west side of Joseph and heads east as a two-lane undivided highway. The road enters Joseph as Main Street and turns northeast after exiting the town. The route intersects a few local roads before briefly curving southeast. The road now heads east-northeast before turning southeast and eventually east. More streets intersect the route before it enters Monroe as 100 South. In central Monroe, the highway turns north onto Main Street. Exiting Monroe and entering rural surroundings, it veers slightly eastward. East of Elsinore, the route turns northeast onto another highway. North of Central, the route passes Richfield Municipal Airport. North of the airport, the road enters Richfield as Main Street, widens to four lanes, and straightens to the north before a short overlap with SR-120 commences. As the concurrency ends, SR-120 continues north on Main Street while SR-118 turns east onto 300 North, a two-lane highway. The highway exits Richfield while SR-119 splits off toward Glenwood and SR-118 turns northeast. The route continues in this direction in a rural environment before terminating at SR-24 north of Sigurd and southwest of Salina.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
“I was here first introduced to Joe.... He was a good-looking Indian, twenty-four years old, apparently of unmixed blood, short and stout, with a broad face and reddish complexion, and eyes, methinks, narrower and more turned up at the outer corners than ours, answering to the description of his race. Besides his underclothing, he wore a red flannel shirt, woolen pants, and a black Kossuth hat, the ordinary dress of the lumberman, and, to a considerable extent, of the Penobscot Indian.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
