Maui/other island climbing

Hi MP world,

I'm headed to Maui with my wife and son for a week or so in early February. I didn't find much while researching so wanted to ask.

1. Is there a days worth of decent climbing (sport, DWS or bouldering) on Maui?
2. Is there a place to rent or borrow gear? Crash pad or rope in particular.

If no to those above then...

What are the logistics like to island hop elsewhere to find climbing and gear rental?

This in particular looks awesome, any thoughts?

Any other must do things while in Maui?

There are 5 Maui climbing sites listed on this sight.

Like Jay said there are five bouldering locations on MP for Maui. Nothing to write home about, but something to pull down on (more often something to pull off!) when you're not on the beach or in the water. It's all volcanic, so it's a choss lovers paradise. Do some research of your own...John Long wrote a story about his climbing attempts on Laui.

The Moke, while good, is not on Maui, it is on Oahu. Maui does have some bouldering, but the majority of established climbing is on Oahu. The other islands have limited development, especially with regards to roped climbing.
