It's an advisement of USACE, not me.

For Being FTF!!!
This is a Challenge Cache based on COLORS.
The cache IS at the coordinates posted above.
Here are the rules you must follow:
~*~*~*~*~*~
CLARIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE TO DEFINE EXACTLY WHAT A COLOR IS. THERE HAVE BEEN SOME MISCONCEPTIONS ON THIS. I HOPD TO FURUHER SPECIFY WHAT WILL BE ACCEPTED.
~*~*~*~*~*~
***************
Cache owner has the right to refuse and delete logs deemed not acceptable for the find.
Lists can be emailed for approval before posting. Use the address on the CO profile.
***************
1. To log a find on this cache, you must find FIFTEEN caches with a color in the title of the cache. (Fifteen DIFFERENT colors).
2. Caches may be found anywhere in the world.
3. To level the field, only caches found after 9/1/11 will count. I found my first cache on 9/4/11, so the date is meaningful to me.
4. Successfully find and log 15 caches with colors in the name. All cache and event types are allowed for this challenge. (It's a good idea to add extras, just in case you have listed some colors that aren't acceptable.)
5. Create a list called "Color of Cache Challenge: Virginia".
*Include this cache in your list.
*List one cache you have found for each "color" you use.
*One rule of thumb for deciding if a color will be acceptable is to think of the Crayola Colors. Or use a dictionary type web site to verify the definition of your color choice. If it cannot be verified as a color, it will have to be discarded.
*You can't use words like Tired as the color "red" since "ti" cannot stand alone even though red can.
*Something such as Greenbacks will be accepted since each word can stand alone.
*"Red Light, Green Light, GO!" may be used for red or green but not both.
*IN THE CACHE LOG, include the name, GC code and date that you found the cache.
A Project.GC checker has been created by vpdj. It really does speed up the process immensely. Its results can be pasted into your log. THANKS FOR ALLOWING ME TO ADD THE CHECKER LINK HERE, vpdj!!!!
UPDATE: AS OF DECEMBER 29, 2014, THE PROJECT GC CHECKER HAS BEEN MODIFIED TO MAKE THE SEARCH RESULTS MORE ACCEPTABLE. ANY FOUND IT LOGS NOT CONFORMING TO THE REQUIREMENTS WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT NOTICE.

The posted coordinates are correct. The parking and the trail-head coordinates are in the waypoints.
The cache has been given this difficulty/terrain rating because it's unknown which caches you may use for qualifying. There may be lots of driving, walking, researching and other variables involved in finding fifteen color caches.
Good luck and most of all...HAVE FUN!
