A sign next to the 10' tall granite Inukshuk explains the origin and purpose of these rock figures. The sign is inscribed:

The Inukshuk (pronounced IN-OOK-SHOOK)
means "the image of a man".
These magnificent lifelike figures of stone
erected by the Inuit people are unique to the
Canadian Arctic.
The traditional purpose of an Inuksuk was to act as a guide
for safe journey through the wilderness.
An Inukshuk on land with two arms and legs means there is a
valley, and at the end of this valley you will be able to go in
two directions

What is true about the Inukshuk is true about people.

Inukshuks in themselves are the product of cooperation. The
hands of an entire group are required to build these
massive stone sculptures. The Inukshuk reminds us that as
good as out individual efforts may be, together we can do even
greater things.
Standing along Canada's most northern shores, they endure as
eternal symbols of leadership, encouraging the importance of
friendship and reminding us of our dependence
upon one another.
