Mostly just difficult depending on your moral compass. I doubt you would get caught and have legal action enforced for walking a few feet over the line on a commonly climbed mountain. I assume the landowners pretty much expect people to ignore their boundaries to be honest.
it's up to you if you want to risk ending up on Santa's naughty list. everyone's heard of the Elf on the Shelf, but beware his mountain climbing equivalent, the Choss on the Bross.
