"Thank you for your inquiry. Virginia's wildlife management areas (WMA) were purchased using funds derived from hunting, fishing and trapping licenses, as well as contributions made by the Federal Assistance in Wildlife Restoration Program. As such, WMAs have been purchased and are managed for the purposes of habitat management and production of wildlife. Certain wildlife-related recreational acitvities are consistent and compatible with this objective, but not all outdoor recreation can be accomodated. As geocaching is not related to, nor does it support wildlife or habitat management, this activity is not allowed on our WMAs."

Unfortunately, this cache will have to be moved from the area.

Geocache Description:


This cache is located in the Cavalier Wildlife Management Area (WMA) which provides coastal and forested habitats for a wide range of wildlife, including black bear, neo-tropical migratory songbirds, canebrake rattlesnakes, white-tailed deer, and eastern wild turkeys. Currently, much of the management area is cut-over forestland, with several hundred acres in 15-year-old planted pine. The 3,800-acre main tract, located approximately 2.5 miles east of the Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), was once part of the Great Dismal Swamp but was ditched and drained more than 200 years ago. Note that there are seasonal access restrictions. Please review the cache attributes above and visit this link to obtain information on rules and hunting seasons.
