Just wanted to share that we heard from two groups that the Dirty Devil River is impassible (for vehicles) at Poison Springs Canyon (at least as of Septemner 25th). Both groups had just come from the river and saw it first-hand. We were told that there's a very steep bank on both sides of the river. Upon hearing this, we didn't take the time to see it for ourselves, but thought we'd pass this info along for others' planning purposes.
