Oh man, my kid asks about doing this more but I always get annoyed by the hoops to jump through to use apps, or their paid tiers and whatever. Hope someone has a good app recommendation. I don't mind paying if it's a quality one

Geocaching is a worldwide scavenger hunt that uses a GPS or phone app with GPS. There are over 3 million active caches around the world. Some are as small as a dime, others are big enough to walk into, all of them provide a unique adventure. We invite you to share your stories, photos, and experiences!

c:geo worked well when I tried it
I second cgeo. It unlocks most of the caches. Though you might also try the web version on your phone to accomplish the same thing but it's less intuitive.
It took me a month or two of playing geocaching until I felt I really wanted premium and I don't regret it.
A pen and a pair of tweezers is what a friend recommended. Also a pair of gardening gloves if you're going to bring a bag with you
My phone, keychain pen, keychain sak, keychain flashlight.
In my car I have some totts if I need them.
I use just my phone. The gear I take is a pen, a multitool, and some spare logbooks. If I go at night, a torch.
