Dreamtime is still alive
Michele Caminati found that a crucial hold on Dreamtime had broken. Together with Akito Matsushima, they found that the sequence is still possible and he says, "Please don't glue back anything."
Dreamtime at Cresciano is the classic 8B+, originally given 8C by FA Fred Nicole in 2000. Rumours say it has been downgraded due to chipping, but not everybody agrees on this.
