Outside the main entrance area to the International Terminal is a set of three totem poles. Restored by a team of conservators, the poles are a fine example of 'Ksan carvers Walter Harris and Earl Muldoe.

Carved in the 1960s, the poles were displayed in a number of locations including the former Expo '86 site before being brought to the airport. Set among small reflective pools of water and a mini forest-like area planted with indigenous trees such as oak, pine and fir, they provide a restful area for travellers and visitors to appreciate B.C.'s nature and culture.
