About Coyote Trail
Coyote Trail (1224) is a very dark, medium-strength beige from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 16, Coyote Trail absorbs most light. It creates a dramatic, enveloping look and suits accent walls, cabinetry and well-lit rooms.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Coyote Trail's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, accent walls and kitchen cabinets. It's very close to Amaretto (CSP-325); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
