Chris,
Go to this website https://gml.noaa.gov/grad/solcalc/ and drag the large
pin to your QTH.
Determine your Solar Noon from the results table.
If you place a stick in the ground at your prospective tower spot, the
shadow cast by that
stick at your Solar Noon on that day will point directly north.
Good luck with your tower project.
73,
