There’s So Much to Explore in Roslyn, Washington, Come See!

Ready for a fun road trip? Try Roslyn. There are some fun things to do in this tiny town of less than a thousand residents.

Although the acclaimed hit series Northern Exposure helped put Roslyn on the map of places to see in Washington State, it's nothing like the fictional town of Cicely, Alaska. You won't see any moose wandering around, that's just on the TV show (that's set in Alaska).

There are, however at least three landmarks in Roslyn that were featured in the TV show that I recommend you visit.

• The Cemetery
• The Radio Station Where the Character Chris Hosted His Daily Town Radio Show
• The Colorful Mural That the Moose Walks in Front of in Northern Exposure's opening theme song credits
