Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the posted coordinates, of course. The posted coordinates will, however, bring you tolerably close to the cache. To find the cache coordinates you will need to solve the two cryptic clues given below. If you are unfamiliar with cryptic clues, do a Google search for the phrase "cryptic crossword clues".

Clue 1: Waterway sounds like weird passage in the ear Clue 2: Spouse dump by Presidential candidate? No! waterway The answer to each clue is a 2 word phrase. The cache is hidden at N 43 degrees 12. AB6, W 077 degrees 54. CD7. For A: Count the number of vowels in the two answers and subtract 1. For B: Add 2 to the number of letters in the second word of the answer to clue 2. For C: The number of letters in the first word of the answer to clue 1. For D: D is equal to the number of times the letter n appears in the two answers. The cache is hidden a few steps north of the towpath. If the puzzle frustrates you and you would like a hint or the answer, please e-mail me. I won't respond until after the FTF. I suggest parking in Brockport at the parking area near the towpath.
