First Time
I'm going geocaching tomorrow. I've always wanted to do it and tomorrow I'm going, I'm taking my 9 year old step son on a treasure hunt. I've made him a 'bingo' card incase we don't find any caches so he still gets to find some things. But hopefully we will find a couple because I want to go on a trail/hike/loop through a nice bit of the countryside that has a few caches along the way to make an enjoyable walk a bit more exciting.
What do I need to know and prepare for in order to have the best time?
Edit to update: We had a lovely time going through woodland trails. We found 4 caches, 2 had 'swag' to trade which was super exciting. We saw a good range, 1 micro cache, 1 ammo box, a couple down low and a couple higher up We had such a good time hunting around and noticing things we wouldn't have usually noticed. Thanks so much for the advice and input
Aside from the geocaching itself we found some edible berries, a woodpecker, a 50m² area of hundreds of spiders, some shelf mushrooms, a coppicing area, an ancient ice glacia boarder and more!
