Tuya Lake, located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada,[1] presumably derives its name from the presence of nearby steep-sided, flat-topped volcanoes, known as tuyas.[2] The lake is situated just south of Tuya Butte at a latitude of about 59 degrees North and a longitude of about 131 degrees West.[3]
