I made this instructional video as part of my solar-photovoltaic course. Finding true south is considered an essential skill for solar site assessment.
That said, the information here is also fully applicable to navigation/orienteering with a magnetic compass. The video explains the concept of magnetic declination and how to use it to find true north, as opposed to the often inaccurate magnetic north.
Hope this is useful to a few folks:
