<h2>Check out all the Wildlife</h2>
<p>
As spawning season approaches, the fish acquire a humpback and protuberant jaw. After spawning, they die and their carcasses provide a feast for gatherings of mink, bears, and Bald eagles.

<h3>From Tents to Resorts</h3>

Lake Tahoe is full of wonderful places to stay. You have the ability to sleep in the outdoors in a tent, or relax like a king at a five star resort. Here are our top three resorts:

18,266 PointsYou were targeting a class called "a". For unvisited links you use :link and for visited links use :visited.
a:link{
}

7,145 PointsThere is no pseudo class called "unvisited". Rather, you can use the pseudo class "link" for the orange color declaration, and differentiate between the clicked and un-clicked links by using the "visited" pseudo class.
Your answer should look something like this:
a:link {
color: orange;
}
Hope that helps!
