Welcome to the GEO-EYE SERIES!
This series consists of 45 puzzle caches. We incorporated various difficulty levels. All the caches that form the PUPIL of the eye (P1 to P6) will be the harder ones. The IRIS caches (I01 to I16) will be of intermediate difficulty, and the EYE outline (E01 to E23) will be easy ones.
And then to collect the smilies, we recommend high clearance vehicles. Especially during the rainy season, as the roads can get very muddy. But then again, that is part of all the fun!
Each puzzle will start with an eye fact, followed by the puzzle. There might be clues hidden in the eye fact :-)
EYE FACT
For most people these days, spectacle frames are much more than just a vehicle to hold their lenses. Frames should reflect the personal style of the wearer: they can be fashionably conspicuous, for example, or they can be modestly discreet – so much so, in fact, that they are barely noticeable. They should be extremely functional – that goes without saying – and often they must provide protection during sporting or outdoor activities. One thing is for sure: the spectacle frames and lenses must interact perfectly to provide you with outstanding vision and an attractive appearance.
Five factors to consider when choosing spectacle frames
You don’t need to be a fashion expert to find frames that look great on you. Use the following four tips to find the frames that work best for your style.
1. Face Shape
Is your face round, oval, square, diamond or heart-shaped? The shape of your face will help you determine which frames enhance your look.
Round Face: Frames that are square or rectangular tend to be wider than a round face. This quality can enhance your face by making it appear slimmer and longer, adding balance to your round features.
Oval Face: Frames that suit an oval face have a strong bridge, are wider than the broadest part of the face and are geometric in shape.
Square Face: Frames that soften the angularity and sit high on the bridge of the nose look best on square faces. Oval or round eyeglasses will balance and add a thinner appearance to the angles of a square face.
Diamond Face: Play up a narrow forehead and chin with frames what sweep up or are wider than the cheekbones, such as cat eye glasses and oval frames. These frames will accentuate your cheekbones and delicate features.
Heart-Shaped Face: Frames that balance the width of the forehead with the narrowness of the chin are ideal. Frames with low-set temples and bottom heavy frame lines will add width to that narrower part of your face. Round frames with curved edges will help draw attention away from a broad, high forehead.
The key to finding the right frames is to remember that opposites attract. Select eyeglasses that contrast from your facial contours and bring symmetry and balance to your prominent features.
2. Consider Colors That Match Your Skin Tone
Just as the shape of your face helps determine which frames look best, so does your skin tone. More important than hair color and more decisive than eye color, skin tone sets the tone for high fashion frames. Select a shade closest to your skin tone:
Warm Skin Tone
If you have a yellow, bronze or golden cast to your skin, you have a warm complexion. Stay away from contrasting colors such as pastels. White and black frames are not flattering either. Instead, the best frame colors for you are light tortoise, browns shades, gold or honey, beige, and olive green.
Cool Skin Tone
If your skin has pink or blue undertones, you have a cool complexion. Avoid colors that wash you out and instead reach for frames that are silver, black, dark tortoise, pink, purple, blue, mauve and gray.
3. What's Your Lifestyle?
There are eyeglass frames for every way of life! Think about the activities you will do while wearing your eyeglasses. If you are active choose a frames which can twist and bend without breaking. When impressing the big wigs at the office, you can accessorize your business savvy with sensible style.
4. Fit Frames to Your Personality?
The frames you wear can say a lot about your personality. You can have a pair of glasses that showcase your fun loving side on the weekends and a pair that emphasizes your get down to business tone during the week. Adorn your face with your favorite color (as long as it doesn’t clash with your skin tone) or detailed embellishments and flare. Choose either one style of frames to express your personality or have a small collection of frames on hand to easily alter your appearance to suit your mood.
5. Comfort
One of the most important deciding factors which are often overlooked is comfort. You are going to wear your spectacles every day for the next year, so make sure that they are comfortable. Most people prefer plastic frames, as they are more comfortable over the nose bridge. Metal frames have separate nose pads, which can press on the side of your nose and leave indentation marks. So make sure to try on the frame and select a comfortable one.

You will need to solve the below puzzle to obtain the final coordinates.
It was just like any other day in the office. Rose sat at the reception desk and just stared into the distance. She has always been a daydreamer. Since she moved to this town a year ago, nothing exciting has ever happened. Maybe she should go on a hike in the mountains this weekend? "Ehem... Hallo!" Rose jumped when she saw the old man at the door. "Please forgive me sir. I didn't see you standing there" She opened the electric gate, and the old man entered the store. He had a strange look on his face... and definitely not from here. When you live in a small town, you are familiar with everyone. "I would just like to have a look at your frame selection, please", the old man replied. "Sure", Rose said and accompanied the man to the frames. "Please shout if you need any help"
Hmmm? There is something very odd about this old man? He had long, white hair and a brownish looking robe on. Maybe he is just visiting his family in town?
Minutes ticked by while Rose continued her daydreaming. The old man approached her and said: "Young lady, if you are looking for an adventure, go and look at your frame display. You may be surprised at what you will find..." And off he went. Adventure? Frame display? What was the old man talking about?
