Actually they didn't know about the 100 or the Ark until after the bridge was bombed by the 100. So the first drop ship landing on the wrong mountain was the Arks fault. I don't think they have satellites it's their scouts taking pictures and tracking the sky people and grounder movements. Acid fog isn't counterproductive if most of your people live in a bunker and can't survive outside when there isn't even any it is a good way to keep outsiders from getting to close and in an episode it sounds like they can navigate through the fog. They also have a small population of 382 people why would they interfere in the grounder delinquent war where the grounders had a 300 strong army the Mountain Men at most might have an army of 100 and adding their severe weakness to radiation they wouldn't risk it. They took the 48 in after the conflict because that's when it was safe to make their move. They see the sky people like they see the grounders they are outsiders and will used them to help themselves if they can in any way possible hence the bone marrow transplants.
