I believe you are correct in this assumption. My brother-in-law who was at CotCan in March (as he calls it), says that the road past that point was impassable due to heavy run-off over the past year and a half, filling the jeep-trail with debris. he concurs that the hike beginning at the "closure point" would exceed 5 to 6 hours to the end due to the "tough" conditions. He also said that he did not observe any "gov. Road Closed signs" in the vicinity. This is just a case of nature at work. A good amount of work would be needed to clear and fill these 8-9 miles to the end so that it would be possible to drive it again.
