Prospector with shovel in hand and pack on his back stands, one foot raised, looking off into the distance. Beside him, also with a pack on its back is his dog, just as eagerly looking into the distance. Loaded down with a bag, a blanket roll and a bucket, the dog carries as much or more than the prospector.
These words below the statue read:
THIS STATUE IS DEDICATED TO ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW THEIR DREAMS
(To which we might add the following phrase: with the aid of their ever faithful canine companion)
Breed: Unknown
Date Built: Unknown
