I birded here today from 12:15-3:50. I enter at the intersection of Riverside Ave. and Vine Rock Rd. (you will know it when you see it, although there is another intersection of these same two streets down by the Charles
River, which is confusing.) The entrance is just a simple opening in the fennce. You immediately plunge down into the wildness, truly amazing!
