Took a quick road trip out to the Pacific Northwest states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Stopped at a few parks including Crater Lake, Mount St Helens, and Mount Rainier with lots of geology stops.
Ok for a stopover
This little city park has 30 camping sites for tents and RVs. It is first come, first serve and there are no showers. Each camp site has a picnic table, fire ring and tent or RV pad. The campground was pretty open, but there were some incredibly large trees throughout.

The park sits on the Yellowstone River and has a boat launch. You can also swim there but the river was pretty shallow and rocky.

There really isn't much to the campground or town of Columbus, but it was perfectly acceptable for a one night stay before heading back on my way. It was quiet, clean, cheap, and not too far off the highway.
