How to located coordinates on iphone

[+ilikahike]

Last night out geocaching, I found the first stage of a multicache. Then the batteries in the gpsr died. Even my backup batteries were dead. I couldn't figure out how to enter the coordinates of the second stage into my iphone and have it guide me there. The apps I've tried will locate the coordinates and place them on a map, but they don't show me where I am and guide me in to gz like my Garmin etrex 20 does. Does anyone know how to do this? Is there an app that does this? I like to stay with the free apps if possible.

Which apps?

All have different ways to do things!

 

Groundspeaks paid app, when Navigating to a cache, click the ... in the top right corner, and you get the option to "Add Waypoint"
