I'm not sure if there is anyone on this forum from that far north, I know there is a large number in that area that wheel, second link in my first post.
Extension is pretty tame as well as Barsby Lake area, if you're looking for a little more challenging, Dumont is a decent place to start. All though all of the area is closed to the public due to forest fire risk being so high, be prepared to run into security.
I haven't been out since early June because of fire risk, for me once we get some considerable rain it's usually Sundays and times are always negotiable (The earlier the better though) I know the guys in Cowichan go out usually before noon also.
I left a couple links to some great resources for meeting new off roaders and planning outings.
We just spent some time at Nanaimo Lakes, The camp hosts do a good job enforcing the no noise after 10p.m. as well as the hours leading up to 10p.m.
Most of the camp sites are pretty large and they are not all jammed together so neighbors are heard but not seen for a lot of them, and the lake is great for swimming and fishing. It's completely off the grid but not hard to get to, they keep the out houses clean and garbage is picked up weekly. Aside from that it would take me showing you some tucked away places on the river in the Nanaimo area.
