Benjamin Moore

Coyote Trail

1224

Coyote Trail is a warm orange deepened by brown undertones, resulting in a tone that reads earthy and muted rather than bright. With an LRV of 16.71, it sits low on the reflectance scale and absorbs most ambient light, making it suited to accent walls or smaller rooms where warmth is the intent. It holds well in rustic or Southwestern-influenced spaces and performs reliably in dining areas and entryways.

White Dove or Chantilly Lace create clear value contrast when paired with it. Hale Navy or Iron Mountain sharpen the palette, while Saybrook Sage adds a muted complementary tone.

Coyote Trail in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
