This geocache was hidden for the 21st Anniverary Waukesha JanBoree GCAVZ33 Event.
With the overall Janboree theme of "Gem of a Janboree" since it is the 40th year, this series of hides will highlight various gemstones in the Reverse Where I Go format.
The geocache is NOT at the posted coordinates, rather keep reading for the information on how to get the coordinates.
CAT'S EYES
Gems exhibiting a single bright band are called cat's eyes. This optical phenomenon, called chatoyancy, is caused by light reflecting off of parallel bundles of tiny hollow tubes or fibrous crystals of another mineral inside the gemstone. When a stone is cut into a cabochon (domed top, flat bottom) the reflected light is focused into bright bands on the surface that are perpendicular to each set of fibers or hollow tubes.Many minerals can sometimes be cut as cat's eye gems.

There are two ways to approach finding this geocache:
Option One: Install the Where-I-Go app. Download the cartridge. Click START and you'll be prompted to select the cartridge, then select “New Game” and click START, select a language, select meters or yards, and then you’ll be asked for the three numbers which are listed on this geocache page. The Where-I-Go app will tell you the distance to the cache but not the direction, that is for you to figure out. If you are new to hunting Where-I-Go caches, Be warned, the Where-I-Go app never got beyond a Beta version. It is buggy, and the interface is not terribly user friendly. You can check your distance to the cache as many times as you wish, though once you get down to a few yards you may want to simply search.
Option Two: This happens to be a "Reverse Where-I-Go" to make things much easier. Search online for a "Reverse Where-I-Go" Decoder. It will ask you to enter the 3 six digit codes, allow you click and get the actual coordinates.
THINGS TO KNOW Be prepared to hunt these caches by bringing a Sharpie because the log sheets are "Rite In The Rain" paper and ink will not adhere to them.
