Phone number given for Taits is no longer valid
I called the number for permission to cross private land and the elderly sounding lady explained, "We don't have anything to do with that anymore. I wish I could take our number off the web."
She suggested visits to the caves are now handled by East Zion Adventures. Looking at the EZA site, I would guess it's the tour they call Crimson Canyon. Details seem to match up.
I plan nonetheless to swing by the turn-off tomorrow to see what signage might indicate. I'll update again with anything new.

Thanks for the update, Jason! I took the phone number off. If you do learn about the current access, please report this. The Canyons are amazing. I hope that you get to see them!

Re: Phone number given for Taits is no longer valid
My daughter and I turned onto Tait Road but stopped at the creek crossing so can’t report on any gates or signage beyond that. (Not a big creek but muddy and maybe up to a foot deep — easy on another day but not two-up on a big motorcycle with luggage).
Looking up the road beyond the creek, I saw no signs or gates that would have stopped us otherwise. I also didn’t see a lot of tracks on the road to suggest it was heavily used, for example, by East Zion Adventures. There were just a few automobile tracks crossing the creek.
