Geocache Description:

New neighborhood, new cache. 


The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole. Source: Wikipedia

At the listed coordinates you will find a little help locating the North Magnetic Pole, should you care to go there.

Parking is available adjacent to the cache and nearby on city streets. Be cautious of new housing construction in the area during daylight hours, replace the cache as you found it so it isn't muggled, and use your urban stealth.
