                            ACCOUNTANTS REVIEW REPORT

Board of Directors
Mountains West Exploration, Inc.
Trinidad, CO

We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet for Mountains West Exploration,
Inc. for March 31, 2003 and the related statements of operations for the
three-months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, and cash flows for the three-months
ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, included in the accompanying Securities and
Exchange Commission 10-QSB for the period ended March 31, 2003. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, conditions
exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern unless it is able to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its
obligations and sustain its operations. Management's plans in regard to these
matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, the balance sheet as of December 31, 2002, and
the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein). In our report dated
February 23, 2004, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial
statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying
balance sheet as of March 31, 2003, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the balance sheet from which it has been derived.

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                 March 31, 2003




Note 1 - Presentation of Interim Information:

In the opinion of the management of Mountains West Exploration, Inc., the
accompanying unaudited financial statements include all normal adjustments
considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 30,
2003 and the results of operations for the three-months ended March 31, 2003 and
2002, and cash flows for the three-months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. Interim
results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.

The financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-QSB,
and do not contain certain information included in the Company's audited
financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

Note 2 - Going Concern:

The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a
going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its
ability to develop additional sources of capital or locate a merger candidate
and ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
these uncertainties. Management is seeking new capital to revitalize the
Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Cautionary and Forward Looking Statements

     In addition to  statements of historical  fact,  this Form 10-QSB  contains
forward-looking statements. The presentation of future aspects of Mountains West
Exploration,  Inc.,  ("Mountains  West  Exploration,  Inc.,"  the  "Company"  or
"issuer")  found  in these  statements  is  subject  to a  number  of risks  and
uncertainties  that could cause actual results to differ  materially  from those
reflected in such statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as
of the date hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such
as "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," or "could" or the
negative  variations thereof or comparable  terminology are intended to identify
forward-looking statements.

     These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks
and uncertainties that may cause Mountains West Exploration, Inc. actual results
to be  materially  different  from any future  results  expressed  or implied by
Mountains West Exploration, Inc. in those statements. Important facts that could
prevent  Mountains  West  Exploration,  Inc.  from  achieving  any stated  goals
include, but are not limited to, the following:

         Some of these risks might include, but are not limited to, the
following:

                  (a)      volatility or decline of the Company's stock price;

                  (b)      potential fluctuation in quarterly results;

                  (c)      failure of the Company to earn revenues or profits;

                  (d)      inadequate capital to continue or expand its busi-
                           ness, inability to raise additional capital or financ
                           -ing to implement its business plans;

                  (e)      failure to commercialize its technology or to make
                           sales;

                  (f)      rapid and significant changes in markets;

                  (g)      litigation with or legal claims and allegations by
                           outside parties;

                  (h)      insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.




<PAGE>

         There is no assurance that the Company will be profitable, the Company
may not be able to successfully develop, manage or market its products and
services, the Company may not be able to attract or retain qualified executives
and technology personnel, the Company's products and services may become
obsolete, government regulation may hinder the Company's business, additional
dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of
more shares, warrants and stock options, or the exercise of warrants and stock
options, and other risks inherent in the Company's businesses.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof.
Readers should carefully review the factors described in other documents the
Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB and Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
filed by the Company in 2004 and any Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by the
Company.

The Company owns over small ownership interests in coal bed methane wells in Las
Animas county,  Colorado and has leases on 242 acres for coal bed methane
in Colorado, none of which are explored or developed.  The Company is
currently   considering   developing  these  minerals  itself  as  funds  become
available.

Results of Operations for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2003 Compared to Same
Period in 2002.

The company had revenues in the quarter of $16,656 in 2003 compared to $6,277 in
2002.  The cost of goods sold in the  quarter  was $271 and $75 in 2003 and 2002
respectively.  The company incurred  operating expenses of $7,397 in the quarter
in 2003 and $3,185 in the quarter in 2002.  The increase in  operating  expenses
was due to higher production revenues and some lease expense. The administration
expenses in the quarter  were $1,882 in 2003  compared  to $3,511 in 2002.  The
company had met profit from operations of $7,106 in the quarter in 2003 compared
to a net loss of ($494) in the quarter in 2002.  The profit/loss per share was
nominal in each quarter.
<PAGE>

The profit (loss) per share was nominal in the quarter in 2003 and 2002.  The
trend of net profits cannot be expected to continue in the future as operations
expenses and revenues may be volatile.

Changes in Financial Condition

During the quarter the Company  experienced  an increase in cash position due to
the operating  revenues of the Company.  The Company's total debt remained about
the same as year end. The Company's total liabilities are approximately $40,000.
It is Management's belief that the Company will have revenue sufficient to cover
operating  expenses  and  administrative  expenses  during the  remainder of the
fiscal year.

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING

     The Company does not have capital  sufficient  to meet the  Company's  cash
needs,   including  the  costs  of  compliance  with  the  continuing  reporting
requirements  of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934. The Company will have to
seek loans or equity  placements to cover such cash needs.  Lack of its existing
capital may be a sufficient impediment to prevent it from accomplishing the goal
of expanding its operations. There is no assurance,  however, that without funds
it will ultimately allow company to continue its business.

The  Company  will  need to raise  additional  funds  to  expand  its  business
activities in the next twelve months.

         No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management
or  other  stockholders.  Accordingly,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  any
additional  funds  will be  available  to the  Company  to allow it to cover its
expenses as they may be incurred.

         Irrespective   of  whether  the  Company's  cash  assets  prove  to  be
inadequate to meet the Company's  operational  needs,  the Company might seek to
compensate providers of services by issuances of stock in lieu of cash.

GOING CONCERN

     The Company's auditor has issued a "going concern" qualification as part of
his opinion in the Audit Report. There is substantial doubt about the ability of
the  Company to  continue as a "going  concern."  The  Company has no  business,
limited capital, debt in excess of $61,292,  $7,343 of which is current,  $8,719
in cash, minimal other liquid assets, and no capital commitments. The effects of
such conditions could easily be to cause the Company's bankruptcy.
<PAGE>

     Management  hopes  to  seek  and  obtain  funding,  via  loans  or  private
placements  of stock  for  operations,  debt  and to  provide  working  capital.
Management  has  plans to seek  capital  in the  form of loans or stock  private
placements in the next year of approximately $250,000.

b.       Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting
identified in connection with the Company evaluation of these controls as of the
end of the period covered by this report that could have significantly affected
those controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referred to in the
previous paragraph, including any correction action with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weakness.
