I've always thought it had to be fairly close to the Mount Weather area to make them fear the Mountain Men and also view the Woods Clan as a threat (prior to the Coalition). There was an apocalypse which can change the landscape and weather, so it doesn't necessarily mean they have to be somewhere farther north in order for there to be the "ice."

Besides, they were able to arrive in Tondc fairly quickly for the meeting, meaning they had to be close enough for one of Lexa's riders to reach them, pass along the message for the meeting, and then for them to arrive in Tondc within a few days.
