if you go that way you will be within an hour of Dry Falls State Park which is worth an overnight, especially if it is around the new moon/dark skies
The campground is in a box canyon that obscures light pollution and makes it like stargazing from the bottom of a well. The stars are visible clear to the horizon
we took a 75 day trip with a camp trailer and followed the Columbia River from the Gorge to it's headwaters in BC. The night we spent at Dry Falls was a highlight that we hit by accident
It happened to be a new/late rising moon and half the campground was folks with huge telescopes who let us look at what they were focussing on. Very cool
