Hi,
I used a similar method extensively to cross many of the mountains around Elwynn Forest.
What usually works for me is to run up the hill, and when the avatar quits making progress, alternatively tap left and right. I think what happens is that some of the vertices of the triangles that the avatar is trying to get onto are "lower" than some of the one's on the triangle that he's on, and so the program thinks he's going "flat".
Then again, not having access to the source, I'm probably completely wrong.
Bit it does work, and some of the views from the peaks are well worth the effort -- for those spots, I crank all the sliders up, go to 1280X1024 (max for my card), and drool :) Of course, If I try to move, or even pan or tilt the camera, I get a frame rate of "seconds per frame" -- but it sure is purty.
