The North Pole of Inaccessibility is the point in the Arctic the furthest from any land. 84° 03' North, 174° 51' West is the most commonly quoted point, but it is incorrect, having been estimated in 1920 by Vilhjalmur Stefansson. You probably should have researched it better before crossing all that ice, now you'll have to eat the dogs.
