Just a guess, and I am probably WAY off, but perhaps it was a calculated gamble. The Sky People get a good taste of the "natural" hazards on the ground, in addition to the local Grounders, who were showing themselves to be hostile. And then when Mt Weather shows up to "help" them, instant allies.

Of course, what Mt Weather failed to consider was, that the 100 would be able to work out an agreement with the Grounders. They screwed up, underestimating the opposition.
