Coyote Lake is located in Grand Teton National Park, in the U. S. state of Wyoming.[2] Situated .70 miles (1.13 km) north-northwest of Mount Hunt, Coyote Lake lies in a cirque nearly surrounded by several unnamed peaks each nearly 11,000 feet (3,400 m) above sea level.[2] Coyote Lake can be reached from the Open Canyon Trail but requires off trail navigation to access.[3]
