Why Lat/Long??

UTM is easier than LAT/LON, especially for mapreading, however LAT/LON seems to be the accepted defacto coordinate system in use today. For geocaching, either will work just as well and one can easily convert from one to other by simply entering the coordinates in their given format and then selecting the desired format from your GPS setup screen.
