That's right. Over here in Alaska magnetic north is about 30 degrees northeast. I don't know of any ancient civil works around here that are aligned with magnetic north, but sometimes someone builds his house that way thinking it is true north.

If the symmetry of the map above is correct, the declination would be about 14-15°, not 20°. That's what it is in California.
