op says "hills.." are said hills connected to bigger mountains or ridiculously steep? where exactly is this riding area in question? makes a difference as
well as how often you're using that easiest gear to spin on the steepest/longest uphills...? every ride or rarely? on the steepest part(s), wishing you had
an easier gear to spin or just standing for a spell up it?
