[Elecraft] KX3 remote transmitting

I am moving and am going to be in a challenging location.  I am currently
1000ft above sea level and 600ft above a valley in Oregon.  I am spoiled as
currently I can make SSB contacts in Brazil using my KX3 at 10 watts and a
Hexbeam antenna.  I will be moving into a valley surrounded by nearby
hills/mountains at least several hundred feet higher than my new QTH.  There
is a high knoll nearby I could put an antenna on that would require about
1100ft of cable.  Is it a dumb idea to instead put a KXPA100 or maybe a
KPA500 at the end of the run at the antenna base and make the long cable run
between the KX3 and the amplifier rather than a straight run from my shack? 
Are there other better/cheaper solutions?
