About this recording
Ben MacGregor has been contributing his regular "Out and About with Ralph" column to the Caithness Courier for over 40 years, exploring the county and promoting the wilder side of life in the far north.
The retired Dounreay worker is an experienced sea kayaker, hillwalker and cyclist. In this interview he shares some of his experiences of the landscapes, seascapes and wildlife while also expressing his views on wind farms, railways and tourism.
Ben says: “Our real resource is the natural beauty and the wildlife and the scenery, which is world class. There’s very little else like it in the world.”
Ben was speaking to John Davidson, editor of the Caithness Courier and John O'Groat Journal, during a kayaking trip along the Caithness coast near Dunbeath. John kindly made his recording available to Wick Voices.
