Forest Spirit is one of 49 concrete wolf sculptures associated with the Spirit Way walk in Thompson, Manitoba. Eleven of these wolves, including Forest Spirit, are located in Winnipeg. Forest Spirit was funded by donations from former Thompson residents. A plaque lists the names of the donors. The wolf is painted in a design resembling the northern lights, along with other designs, and the pedestal depicts a boreal forest scene with several fish swimming in the water.
