Locations

 * The magazines are randomly found throughout Appalachia, including a selection of potential spawn points.

Trivia

 * The covers of Backwoodsman Magazine seem to be an intentional reference to the works of noted pulp artist | Will Hulsey. His paintings for 1950s and 60s pulp magazines frequently depicted rugged-looking men in swamps being attacked by unusual animals (such as lizards or flying squirrels) while defending women in partially-torn red blouses.
