| The Bookie family reside semi-permanently at their tourism base camp. In summer when temperatures in the desert can reach 55 degrees, the family move back to Alice Springs and prepare resources for the next tourist season [usually between April and September each year]. |
| Family members have thorough traditional environmental, cultural and historical knowledge of this landscape and are well capable of sharing the significance of their country with visitors. |
| They provide insight into traditional methods of hunting, gathering and surviving on country through the living experience of Mr Lindsay Bookie and his family, and the knowledge passed on from generations before them. |

This is an area of 18,000 square kms and is approximately 350kms east of Alice Springs. It is located south of the Plenty Highway close to the Northern Territory | Queensland border. The Hay River system crosses through the property and the Simpson Desert borders the southern end of the property. The Atnetye Land Trust is also situated among some of the most sought after 4WD adventure tracks in Central Australia; the Birdsville track and Strezliki track.
