Cool, it's interesting hearing about everyones kit and what they choose to lug around.
I guess it's largely a balance of mobility vs having the best gear for the job.
It's rare that I feel I need a tripod, but for the situations that I do, for longer exposures or timelapse photography, I'm glad I have my gorillapod with me.

Source Assault 20L Hydration Cargo Pack
This is a high-quality lightweight backpack with a 3L hydration bladder plus plenty of room for additional gear. I'd definitely recommend a backpack with a hydration bladder, it's a lot more convenient than fumbling around with a water bottle.
As for what other gear I take:
Smartphone (with geocaching app of course)
Portable charger for smartphone
Camera (Canon 60D)
Gorillapod (clipped to back of backpack)
Pen (+ backup pen)
Notepad
Torch
Hand wipes
Small first aid kit
Snacks
And I have a mini swiss army knife on my keychain that contains tweezers, that can be useful for some nano caches

Hi,
I'm curious as to what photography gear you all take with you while going out geocaching.
DSLR and tripod?
Multiple lenses?
Just a small compact camera?
Only use smartphone camera?
The great thing about geocaching is that it takes us to interesting places that we otherwise wouldn't have gone, and therefore creates a lot of great photo opportunities. For this reason I like to carry around my DSLR (Which is currently a canon 60D with 18-55 kit lense), and a gorillapod that I clip onto my backpack.
Ideally I'd like to at least upgrade my lense to something with more reach for photographing wildlife, but for now that's my simple camera kit.
What's yours?
