Stilly mentions Roslyn. It's a kick and a half to go to Roslyn (East of Seattle, just beyond Snoqualmie Pass and a little way off I-90) and look around. It's an old mining town, I think. Lots of people have been there vicariously, even if they've never been there physically. Remember Cicely, Alaska?

Roslyn was used as the setting for Northern Exposure. The Brick, Roslyn's Cafe, Maurice Minnifield's big log house. . . .   I've been in that house. Barbara and I know Jim and Marge Hathaway, the people who own it and who allowed them to film there. They're all there in Roslyn, Washington. Dunno about the moose, though.

Been there a few times visiting the Hathaways. Looked around, shook my head, and laughed a lot. Talk about déjà vu!
