The campground near Randle is Iron Creek. It has a day use area. I've also stopped for a break at the FS station near Randle.
There are various campgrounds along Wind River, as well as stop at the top of the pass and the overlook on Curly Ck. And a Snomobile parking area at the turn off to Windy Ridge.
For the 97 route there's MaryHill campground near the bridge, Brooks Memoral State Park near the top of Satus Pass (there is a Washington State Park day use fee), and pull off at Satus pass itself. Not more stops until you get to the agricultural area around Topnensih and Yakima. There's Yakima tribal casino and restaurant and campground in Topenish, though I prefer to eat at taco trucks in this area. And Sportsman State Park on the Yakima River on the east side of I82.
There are campgrouds along US12 especially around Rimrock Lake, and a ski area stop at the top of White Pass.
Overall the US97 route is more civilized. On the other there aren't any towns between Carson on the river and Randle, and that isn't much. Packwood is larger.
