Although Captain E. T. Barnette is credited with establishing the city of Fairbanks, the Tanana Valley has been inhabited by indigenous people for thousands of years. This statue appropriately gives homage to the unknown first people to discover the area. It is located in Golden Heart Park, bewteen the Chena River and the Log Cabin Visitors Center. This statue/monument is surrounded by a beautiful fountain and flowers in summer, and is one of the best known and loved landmarks in Fairbanks.
