INFORMATION STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 14 (F) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 AND RULE 14(F)-1 THEREUNDER

This information statement (the “Information Statement”) is being mailed on or about November 30, 2007 to holders of record as of the close of business on November 29, 2007 of shares of common stock, no par value per share ("Common Stock"), of Mountains West Exploration, Inc., a New Mexico corporation (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"). You are receiving this Information Statement in connection with the appointment of persons to a majority of the seats on the board of directors of the Company (the "Board") in connection with an understanding related to the Company’s purchase of the membership interests of Secured Digital Storage LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“SDS”) on November 7, 2007.

The appointment is being effected through an increase in the number of authorized board members and the appointment of new directors to fill those vacancies. Effective November 7, 2007 (the "Closing Date"), the date of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement between SDS, us and certain other parties (the "Purchase Agreement"), as one of the understandings related to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, a new board was agreed upon consisting of three designees of SDS, three designees of the Company and one unaffiliated director. As such, effective November 13, 2007, Mr. Larry Malone, the Company’s President and COO, was appointed to the Board, which now consists of three members: Lee Wiskowski, Douglas J. Stukel and Larry Malone. On November 13, 2007, the Board designated the following individuals for appointment, following delivery of this information statement: Richard Dent, William M. Lynes, Peter Gross and Philip Kenny (the “Nominees”). It is contemplated that ten days after we file this Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and mail it to the registered holders of our Common Stock, these Nominees will become directors.

As the appointments to the Board have been effected other than at a meeting of our stockholders, Section 14(f)-1 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, together with Rule 14(f)-1 promulgated thereunder, require us to provide our stockholders and the SEC with the information set forth in this Information Statement not less than ten days prior to the date on which the Nominees will constitute a majority of our board or such other time period as may be established by the SEC. No actions are required by our stockholders in connection with the appointment of the Nominees. Nevertheless, you are urged to read this Information Statement carefully and in its entirety.

THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS PROVIDED TO YOU FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. WE ARE NOT SOLICITING YOUR PROXY OR CONSENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE ITEMS DESCRIBED HEREIN. NO VOTE OR OTHER ACTION BY OUR STOCKHOLDERS IS REQUIRED TO BE TAKEN IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT. THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT IS NOT AN OFFER TO PURCHASE YOUR SHARES.

CHANGE IN CONTROL TRANSACTION

On November 7, 2007, Mountains West Exploration, Inc., a New Mexico corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “SDS Agreement”) by and among the Company, Secured Digital Storage LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“SDS”) and the members of SDS. Also party to the Agreement for the specific purposes called for therein was William M. Lynes and an initial escrow agent. The transactions contemplated pursuant to the SDS Agreement (the “SDS Acquisition”) were consummated on November 7, 2007 (the “Closing Date”).

Pursuant to the terms of the SDS Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding membership interests of SDS in exchange for certain stock consideration. The Company accomplished the transaction through the direct acquisition of all outstanding membership interests in SDS.

The aggregate consideration paid to the SDS members in connection with the SDS Acquisition was 7,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Transaction Shares”). 1,500,000 Transaction Shares have been held back as security in connection with certain indemnification obligations of SDS, its members and the sellers’ agent.

Pursuant to the terms of the SDS operating agreement, a consent of 75% of the members is required for the approved sale of the Company. Once such consent is obtained all members are required to deliver the documentation necessary in connection with the closing of such approved sale, including a sale of membership interests. While consents in excess of 75% were received, certain members of SDS have not made the required closing deliveries, as obligated. The Company is holding the Transaction Shares due to such members, pending proper delivery of such items.

The Transaction Shares are unregistered, restricted stock, and have no registration rights.

In connection with the proposed acquisition, the Company and SDS reached an understanding that, following the acquisition, our Board would be increased so that it would ultimately consist of seven members: three individuals proposed by the Company (including two then-incumbent directors and one officer of the Company who was already contemplated to become a director), three individuals proposed by SDS and one unrelated director. On November 13, 2007, the Board appointed Larry Malone to be its third director and designated the individuals proposed by SDS and the unrelated individual, subject to delivery of this information statement.

It is contemplated that ten days after we file this Information Statement with the SEC and mail it to our stockholders of record, four additional members will be appointed to the Board. The Nominees are William M. Lynes, Philip Kenny, Richard Dent and Peter Gross. As a result, the Nominees, who are being appointed in accordance with the understanding discussed above, will constitute a majority of the Board.

Corporate Governance

We are not a "listed company" under SEC rules and are, therefore, not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors. Our entire Board serves as our audit committee. No member of our Board is considered "independent" pursuant to Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. In order to be considered “independent” pursuant to Section 10A(m)(3), a director may not, other than in his or her capacity as a director, (i) accept any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the issuer, or (ii) be an affiliated person of the issuer or any subsidiary thereof. The Board has determined that its members are able to read and understand fundamental financial statements and have substantial business experience that results in their financial sophistication. Accordingly, the Board believes that its members have the sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations of members of the audit committee.

Additionally, our Board does not have a standing compensation or nominating committee. Because we do not have such committees, our full Board performs the functions of such committees. Prior to the Closing Date, we were a shell company without any operations and the Board consisted of only two directors, precluding the need for any committees. In light of our recently changed status and the increased size of the Board, the Board will reconsider the formation of committees. In considering director nominees, at a minimum, our Board will consider: (i) whether the director nominee provides the appropriate experience and expertise in light of the other members currently serving on the board and any other factors relating to the ability and willingness of a nominee to serve on the board, (ii) the number of other boards and committees on which the nominee serves, and (iii) the director nominee's business or other relationship, if any, with us, including whether the director nominee would be subject to a disqualifying factor in determining the nominee's "independence" as defined by the listing standards of any then-relevant securities exchange(s). As of the date of this Information Statement, the Board has not adopted procedures for the recommendation of nominees for the Board. The Board will accept nominations from our stockholders. The Board met eight times during 2006. No director attended less than 75% of such meeting.

Stockholder Communication with the Board

Stockholders may send communications to our Board by writing to: Mountains West Exploration, Inc., 2001 Butterfield Road, Suite 1050, Downers Grove, Illinois 60515, attention Board or any specified director. Any correspondence received at the foregoing address to the attention of one or more directors is promptly forwarded to such director or directors.
