That would help of course , but don't discount what you can learn by trying different things each time you tackle that hill. What fun would it be if someone had the perfect answer for your next hill climb? My advice would be to find friends to ride the hill with you -- hill climbing can be really fun, and that enthusiasm is ultimately how I got much better at it.
