Mountains are high up in the air, and the higher up in the air one is, the less dense the air is and stronger the wind is. These two factors can affect how well a helicopter can take off. The stronger the wind, the more likely the helicopter is to be pushed into something and crash or be pulled off the land before it has enough lift to support itself. This is one of the reasons for park rangers not to come save you if you fall down some steep glaciers. The less dense the air, the harder it is to get enough lift to support yourself. It also makes breathing harder (less oxygen per breath). As for hilltops, I'm not entirely sure what dangers there are. I suppose it depends on how high the top is.

What does You must scale the mountain if you want to admire the view mean?

The view from the top of almost any mountain is breath-taking (no pun intended). Sure, you can take a helicopter and be dropped off up there to enjoy that view, but there is something special about making the climb yourself to reach that pinnacle. The higher the mountain, the tougher the climb. But, equally... the better the view!
