Pennsylvania Avenue in Roslyn WA
Roslyn, Cle Elum, Ronald, Ellensburg, Kittitas County,
From 1990 through 1995, the exterior scenes for the hit CBS television series Northern Exposure were filmed on Pennsylvania Avenue in Roslyn and the surrounding area. Although the town of Cicely is widely thought to be patterned after the real town of Talkeetna, Alaska, the main street of Cicely and the filming location was actually that of Roslyn. The moose in the opening title sequence of the television show was named Mort and was provided by Washington State University, where he was part of a captive herd. To film the opening sequence, the crew fenced off Roslyn, set Mort loose, and lured him around with food. The Roslyn Cafe mural depicting a camel and palm trees already existed at the time of the filming to describe the local gathering place as "An Oasis." Many local residents served as extras in the filming of the show, and some were given small parts. Northern Exposure remains a colorful draw for tourism and is a central theme for many local commercial activities.
