What is the present location of the magnetic North Pole?
The position of the north magnetic pole varies slowly from year to year, and is carefully measured by Canadian government scientists every ten years or so by making field measurements near the predicted location of the pole. The north magnetic pole has been drifting slowly northward across the Canadian Arctic islands during the past 150 years, and has moved on average 10 km per year during the last century.

The last position measurement was taken in 1994, when the north magnetic pole was determined to be at 78.3 deg N, 104.0 deg W, on the Noice Peninsula of southwest Ellef Ringnes Island. The pole is estimated to be moving to the NNW at 15 km per year.
