Frostbite Falls

Frostbite Falls, Minnesota is a fictional small town seen on the American animated series Rocky and His Friends and The Bullwinkle Show. It is located in the (real world) location of Koochiching County in Minnesota.
Frostbite Falls is the home of Rocket J. Squirrel, better known as "Rocky," and his pal Bullwinkle J. Moose. The two are the town's most famous residents.
Frostbite Falls's population fluctuates over the course of the original series, ranging from 29 to several thousand residents. Frostbite Falls is also noted as having many more television sets than residents, thanks to the stature of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
Frostbite Falls has a movie theater, a church, and a pet store — all in the same building. It also features at least two newspapers — the Frostbite Falls Far-Flung Flyer and the Picayune-Intelligence — the latter which ran an ill-fated contest with the grand prize being an old-fashioned car. The town's sole high school is Frostbite Falls High School. There is also a college, Wossamotta U., which Bullwinkle attended.
Natural features and landmarks near Frostbite Falls include Veronica Lake and, presumably, Moosylvania, an island of which Bullwinkle is the "governor".
Travel to and from Frostbite Falls is depicted as a less-than-convenient affair. Only one road leads into and out of the town, and train travel to and from the town is not particularly timely.
Frostbite Falls may be a parody of the real-life small town of International Falls, Minnesota, located in Koochiching County. International Falls has long promoted itself as the "Icebox of the Nation", having among the coldest average temperatures of any city in the contiguous United States.
