Forward-Looking Statements

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements regarding us, our business, prospects and results of operations that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties posed by many factors and events that could cause our actual business, prospects and results of operations to differ materially from those that may be anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that may affect such forward-looking statements include, without limitation: our ability to successfully develop our projects; the impact of changes in the market price of gold (and other minerals) on our revenues, changes in law or regulatory requirements that adversely affect or preclude the development of our projects; delays or increases in the cost of developing our project(s); and the uncertainties inherent in the development of mining properties.

When used in this discussion, words such as "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "intends" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may subsequently arise. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business.

PART I

Item 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

Narrative Description of the Business 

We originally planned to act as a developer of indexes that allow investors to access specific market niches or sub-markets. We had planned to earn income by helping investors identify and access specific market niches or sub-markets using our index products.

In previous filings we had disclosed that if we were not successful in our operations we would be faced with several options:

        1.   
Cease operations and go out of business;
        2.   
Continue to seek alternative and acceptable sources of capital;
        3.   
Bring in additional capital that may result in a change of control; or
        4.   
Identify a candidate for acquisition that seeks access to the public marketplace and its financing   sources
 
As it became apparent that our original plans were not developing as hoped, we began looking at these options.  During this effort we identified an opportunity to take advantage of option 4.

On September 17, 2010, we executed a non-binding term sheet with Terra Mining Corporation (“TMC”), a private British of Columbia, Canada corporation, whereby we would acquire TMC in a reverse merger transaction.

Effective October 10, 2010, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized common shares to Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shares from Fifty Million (50,000,000) shares. The par value of the common shares remained at $0.001 per share.

Effective with the commencement of trading on October 12, 2010, we reverse split our Common Shares. New Common Shares were issued to shareholders in exchange for their Old Common Shares in the ratio of one New Common Share for each four Old Common Shares held, thus effecting a one-for-four reverse stock split. Fractional shares, if any, were rounded up to the next whole number. There was no change in the par value of the Common Shares.

The acquisition of TMC was closed on February 28, 2011, subsequent to the close of the Company’s fiscal year.  The effects of this acquisition and related transactions are described below under “Subsequent Event” (and in other appropriate locations in this filing) and in more detail in the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2011, and available at:

 http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1421601/000119983511000113/westmountain-8k.htm.

We operate out of one office in Colorado.

Subsequent Event

On February 18, 2011, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with TMC related to the acquisition of Terra Gold Corporation (“TGC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of TMC. Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, WMTN acquired 100% of the TGC by assuming $500,000 in debt plus accrued interest owed to BOCO Investments, Inc. (“BOCO”).  In addition, WMTN entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Gregory Schifrin, American Mining Corporation (“AMC”) and James Baughman to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of TMC in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of restricted common stock of WMTN. The shares were valued at $.001 per share and WMTN agreed to register the common stock within ninety days on a best efforts basis. As of February 28, 2011, this acquisition was closed and TMC and TGC are wholly owned subsidiaries of WMTN.

TMC was incorporated in British Columbia, on March 25, 2010 and is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mining properties in the United States. TMC had a wholly owned subsidiary, TGC that was incorporated in Alaska, on March 2, 2010 to manage operational activity in Alaska on the Terra Project (a project involving the exploration, evaluation and potentially the development of gold (and associated mineral) mining operations in Alaska, as described briefly below and in greater detail in the March 4, 2011 8-K referenced above).

TGC was acquired by TMC from AMC on May 17, 2010 by assignment of all 10,000 shares of TGC stock owned by AMC as part of the Share Exchange and Assignment Agreement between AMC and TMC. Our Chief Executive Officer served as President and a Director of AMC in February and March 2010 and our Chief Operating Officer served as Chief Operating Officer and a Director of AMC in March 2010.

TMC is an exploration and development Company that explores, acquires, and develops advanced stage properties. TMC has a high-grade gold system in the resource definition phase with 168,000 oz of inferred gold which in total offers potential of greater than 500,000 ounces. The property consists of 240 Alaska state mining claims covering approximately 130 square kilometers. All Government permits and reclamation plans for continued exploration through 2014 were renewed in 2010.

Additional information can be found at www.terraminingcorp.com and in the March 4, 2011 8-K. 

Operations
 
Because WMTN is no longer pursuing its original investment advisor strategy, the following discussion focuses our current business, which is at its heart, the business that is and was being conducted by TMC.

From our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2009, WMTN generated no revenue. As a result we have no operating history upon which to evaluate our business. We had a net loss of $200,524 for this period.

For the period of inception from March 25, 2010 through October 31, 2010, TMC generated no revenue. As a result we have no operating history upon which to evaluate its business. TMC had a net loss of $495,018 for this period.

Operating expenses for WMTN, which consisted solely of general and administrative expenses, were $68,350 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $58,304 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Operating expenses for the period October 18, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010 was $216,891. The major components of general and administrative expenses include professional fees (legal and accounting).
 
Operating expenses for TMC, which consisted primarily of exploration expense, general, administrative expenses and options fees were $442,459 for the period of inception from March 25, 2010 to October 31, 2010. The major components of general and administrative expenses include officer compensation and legal and professional fees.

Our accountants have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of net loss. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute the “Business Subsequent to the Acquisition” as described above.

With the acquisition of TMC, it is expected that expenses of the Company will now reflect the historic expenses incurred by TMC and, subject to raising additional capital, expenditures will ramp up as exploration and as appropriate, development and mining ramp up.  We have budgeted expenditures for 2011 of approximately $1,100,000 for general and administrative expenses and exploration and development. On the other hand, we may choose to scale back our operations to operate at break-even with a smaller level of business activity, while adjusting our overhead to meet the revenue from current operations. In addition, we expect that we will need to raise additional funds if we decide to pursue more rapid expansion, the development of new or enhanced services or products, appropriate responses to competitive pressures, or the acquisition of complementary businesses or technologies, or if we must respond to unanticipated events that require us to make additional investments. We cannot assure that additional financing will be available when needed on favorable terms, or at all.

We expect to incur operating losses in future periods because we will be incurring expenses and not generating sufficient revenues. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues or other funds in the future to cover these operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient revenues or additional financing when needed could cause us to go out of business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2010, we had cash or cash equivalents of $90,586. We had an additional $42,565 in Certificates of Deposit.

Cash flows used in operating activities were $49,924 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $47,389 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Cash flows used in operating activities were $170,406 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were $127,712 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 compared to cash flows used in investing activities were $94,186 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Cash flows used in investing activities were $105,473 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010. We purchased certificates of deposit in the amount of $181,688 during this period.

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $-0- for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.  Cash flows provided by financing activities were $366,465 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010.  These cash flows were all related to sales of stock.

TMC’s cash flows used in operative activities were $285,719 for the period of inception from March 25, 2010 to October 31, 2010.

TMC’s cash flows provided from financing activities were $809,000 for the period of inception from March 25, 2010 to October 31, 2010. These cash flows primarily related to proceeds from Convertible Debentures issued in a principal amount of $630,000 and Demand Promissory Notes in a total principal amount of $150,000. After the closing of this transaction, WMTN (including TMC) had cash or cash equivalents of approximately $1.5 million.

Over the next twelve months WMTN expects that, subject to the availability of capital, we will expend approximately $1.1 million to implement the business plan as described above.  For further details see “Cash Requirements” below.
 
WMTN believes that it has sufficient capital in the short term for our current level of operations but, as discussed in greater detail below under “Cash Requirements” (and under Item 1.01 above and elsewhere), we will have to raise substantial additional capital in order to fully implement the business plan.  If economic reserves of gold and/or other minerals are proven, additional capital will be needed to actually develop and mine those reserves. As described in Item 1.01 above and discussed under “Cash Requirements” below, we must expend $9,050,000 over the next four years as our “earn in” on the TMC project to own rights to 80% of the project.  Even if economic reserves are found, if we are unable to raise this capital, we will not be able to complete our earn in on this project.  

Our principal source of liquidity for the next several years will need to be the continued raising of capital through the issuance of equity or debt.  WMTN plan to raise funds for each step of the project and as each step is successfully completed, raise the capital for the next phase.  WMTN believes this will reduce the cost of capital as compared to trying to raise all the anticipated capital at once up front.  However, since WMTN’s ability to raise additional capital will be affected by many factors, most of which are not within our control (see “Risk Factors”), no assurance can be given that WMTN will in fact be able to raise the additional capital as it is needed.
 
Our primary activity will be to proceed with the TMC project and other mining opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. We cannot guarantee that the TMC project will be successful or that any project that we embark upon will be successful. Our goal is to build our Company into a successful mineral exploration and development Company.
 
Backlog

At December 31, 2010, we had no backlog.  Unless and until mining operations begin, there will be no backlog.

Employees

Until the closing of the TMC acquisition, we had one full-time employee: Mr. Brian Klemsz, our President. Mr. Klemsz did not draw a salary or receive any other kind of compensation. However, we reimbursed our employee for all necessary and customary business related expenses.  Subsequent to the closing of the TMC acquisition, Mr. Klemsz has resigned from his positions with WMTN and no longer serves as an officer or director of WMTN.

On October 1, 2010, TMC (now WMTN’s wholly owned subsidiary) signed an Employment Agreement with Gregory Schifrin (“Schifrin Agreement”). Under the terms of the Schifrin Agreement, Mr. Schifrin was appointed Chief Executive Officer for an indefinite period at a salary of $120,000 per year. Mr. Schifrin is eligible for annual bonuses and incentive plans as determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee. Mr. Schifrin received a $10,000 bonus for entering into the Schifrin Agreement and is eligible for employee benefit programs, including 4 weeks vacation per year, medical benefits and $500 per day spent on the Company’s project sites. Mr. Schifrin may resign with 60 days notice. If Mr. Schifrin is terminated without cause, including a change in control (after six months), he is to receive in a lump sum, two times his annual salary, two times his targeted annual bonus, two times his last year’s bonus and any accrued vacation.

On October 1, 2010, TMC signed an Employment Agreement with James Baughman (“Baughman Agreement”). Under the terms of the Baughman Agreement, Mr. Baughman was appointed Chief Operating Officer for an indefinite period at a salary of $120,000 per year. Mr. Baughman is eligible for annual bonuses and incentive plans as determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee. Mr. Baughman received a $10,000 bonus for entering into the Baughman Agreement and is eligible for employee benefit programs, including 4 weeks vacation per year, medical benefits and $500 per day spent on the Company’s project sites. Mr. Baughman may resign with 60 days notice. If Mr. Baughman is terminated without cause, including a change in control (after six months), he is to receive in a lump sum, two times his annual salary, two times his targeted annual bonus, two times his last year’s bonus and any accrued vacation.

On February 18, 2011, WMTN entered into a Consulting Agreement with Mark Scott (“Scott Agreement”). Under the terms of the Scott Agreement, Mr. Scott agreed to consult on the TMC reorganization and complete the filing of certain SEC filings during the period ending April 8, 2011.  Mr. Scott will receive $4,000 per month in cash and receive 24,000 shares of WMTN restricted common stock. The terms of his appointment as CFO are to be finalized at the conclusion of the Scott Agreement. On February 28, 2011, WMTN awarded Mr. Scott $20,000 and an additional 40,000 shares of WMTN restricted common stock for his work on the TMC reorganization.

The above individuals are the only employees of WMTN (including its subsidiaries) at this time.  As the Terra Project and other projects the Company may undertake gear up, it is anticipated that additional employees will be added as needed.

Grants of Plan Based Awards
 
There have been no awards made to any of our executive officers and WMTN currently does not have any stock option or other stock compensation plans.
 
Compensation of Directors
 
WMTN has not paid our directors compensation for serving on our board of directors.  Our board of directors may in the future decide to award the members of the board of directors cash or stock based consideration for their services to WMTN, which awards, if granted shall be in the sole determination of the board of directors.  It is anticipated that employees of the Company who also serve on the board of directors will receive no additional compensation for such service.  As the Company recruits outside, independent directors, it is anticipated that a compensation package will be developed for such directors that allows the Company to attract and retain qualified directors.

Proprietary Information

We own no proprietary information.

Government Regulation; Environmental Compliance

The mining industry is subject to significant regulation, including but not limited to environmental and safety regulation and such regulation remains in a state of constant adjustment.  A significant ongoing expense for the Company will be incurred to remain in compliance with the environmental and safety requirements applicable to mining exploration and development.
 
Research and Development

As part of the acquisition of TMC, the Company raised approximately $1.5 million to fund the next stages of the exploration and development of the Terra Project. It is expected that if the Terra Project is successful, a minimum of $8 million in additional funding will be needed through the end of 2014.  For further details, please refer to the March 4, 2011 Form 8-K filing.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this document before deciding to invest in shares of our common stock.

The occurrence of any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating result. In this case the trading price of our common stock could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

NOTE:  Although risks related to the mining industry are summarized below, the listed risks are not all inclusive.  In general, the mining industry is a very risky venture, especially for companies and projects in the early stages of development, as is the case with our Terra Project.  For more information regarding the project and its risks, please refer to our March 4, 2011 Form 8-K.

We have a limited operating history and have never been profitable.  As a result, we may never become profitable, and, as a result, we could go out of business.

We were formed as a Colorado business entity in October, 2007. At the present time, we have never been profitable. There can be no guarantee that we will ever be profitable, and, as a result, we could go out of business.
 
Going Concern Risk: Because we had incurred a loss and have no current operations, our accountants have expressed doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.

For our audit dated December 31, 2010, our accountants have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of lack of history of operations, limited assets, and operating losses since inception. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:

our ability to find suitable investments; and

our ability to generate significant revenues.

TMC had an accumulated deficit incurred through October 31, 2010.  TMC has relied primarily on small private sales of its common stock or loans from its officers and directors to fund TMC to date. TMC and or WMTN (now its parent corporation) will continue to seek capital from outside sources through sales of common stock or loans from its officers, directors, or outside investors in order to remain in business and fund its intended operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

An estimated $1,100,000 is necessary to continue operations and fund minimum operations through the next fiscal year.  This estimated amount is for salaries of its officers, professional fees, land payments as well as claim maintenance fees, and work programs on it properties. Management intends to seek new capital from new equity securities issuances to provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund internal growth, and fully implement its business plan. If TMC is successful in raising substantial new capital, it will implement a much more aggressive exploration program on its properties to further evaluate the mineral potential of the claims.

We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in raising sufficient funds and if/when mining operations begin that we will be successful in generating sufficient revenues or other funds in the future to cover these operating costs. Failure to generate sufficient funds and/or revenues will cause us to go out of business.

Our lack of operating history makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects and make decisions based on those estimates of our future performance. An investor could lose his entire investment.

We have a limited operating history. An investor has no frame of reference to evaluate our future business prospects. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, to evaluate us as an investment. An investor could lose his entire investment if our future business prospects do not result in our ever becoming profitable.

Prices of Gold and other minerals are volatile.
 
Our business plan involves acting as a developer of the Terra Project as possibly other mines for gold and/or other minerals.  Even if such project would be viable at some price levels for the minerals being produced and the mines are developed based on such prices, should mineral prices fall below those levels or should the cost of developing and operating the mines prove higher than anticipated, the mining operation may not be profitable operations and in worse case would need to be shut down and abandoned. We cannot guarantee that the Terra Project or any other project that the Company may embark upon will prove to be viable and ultimately profitable.

Our management has substantial influence over our Company. 
 
As of February 28, 2011, Greg Schifrin, our CEO, and Mr. James Baughman either directly or indirectly, own or control 6.5 million shares as of the filing date or approximately 39.4% of our common stock on a fully diluted basis.

Mr. Schifrin, in combination with other large shareholders, could cause a change of control of our board of directors, approve or disapprove any matter requiring stockholder approval, cause, delay or prevent a change in control or sale of the Company, which in turn could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
Our future success depends, in large part, on the continued service of our two key employees and the continued financing of WestMountain Purple, LLC.
 
We depend almost entirely on the efforts and continued employment of Mr. Schifrin and Mr. Baughman. These two individuals are currently our only full time employees are the individuals responsible for overseeing the Terra Project for the Company, and we will depend on them for nearly all aspects of our operations. In addition, WestMountain Purple, LLC, has been a major source of financing. The loss of their services through incapacity or otherwise, would have a material adverse effect on our business. It would be very difficult to find and retain qualified personnel such as Mr. Schifrin and Mr. Baughman and a financing source to replace WestMountain Purple, LLC.

Difficult market conditions can adversely affect our Company in many ways, including by reducing the ability of our Company to raise or deploy capital, which could make it impossible to continue to operate.

If economic conditions are unfavorable our Company may not be able to raise money as needed to continue to fund the Terra Project or other projects undertaken by the Company.   In such event, even if the underlying project(s) have potential, it may prove impossible for the Company to successfully pursue the projects and the Company could have to shut down and, if possible at all, sell or otherwise dispose of the projects as a loss and well below fair market value.

We have limited experience as a public Company.

We have only been trading as a public Company since January, 2010. We trade on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol WMTN. Thus, we have limited experience in complying with the various rules and regulations which are required of a public Company. As a result, we may not be able to operate successfully as a public Company, even if our operations are successful. We plan to comply with all of the various rules and regulations which are required of a public Company. However, if we cannot operate successfully as a public Company, your investment may be materially adversely affected. Our inability to operate as a public Company could be the basis of your losing your entire investment in us.

Our stock has a limited public trading market and there is no guarantee an active trading market will ever develop for our securities.

There has been, and continues to be, a limited public market for our common stock. An active trading market for our shares have not, and may never develop or be sustained. If you purchase shares of common stock, you may not be able to resell those shares at or above the initial price you paid. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the following:

 
 
 
- 8 -

 


*   
 actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;
   
*   
 changes in financial estimates by securities analysts or our failure to perform in line with such estimates;
   
*   
 changes in market valuations of other companies, particularly those in the same (mining) industry as ours;
   
*   
 announcements by us or our competitors of significant innovations,  acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
   
*   
 fluctuations in the supply, demand and price of gold and other minerals;
   
*   
 departures of key personnel.

Of our total outstanding shares as of December 31, 2010 (and February 2011), over 90% of such shares are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.

As restrictions on resale end, the market price of our stock could drop significantly if the holders of restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.

Applicable SEC rules governing the trading of “Penny Stocks” limit the liquidity of our common stock, which may affect the trading price of our common stock.
 
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and trades well below $5.00 per share. As a result, our common stock is considered a “penny stock” and is subject to SEC rules and regulations that impose limitations upon the manner in which our shares can be publicly traded.  These regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock and the associated risks.  Under these regulations, certain brokers who recommend such securities to persons other than established customers or certain accredited investors must make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the written purchaser’s agreement to a transaction prior to purchase.  These regulations have the effect of limiting the trading activity of our common stock and reducing the liquidity of an investment in our common stock.
 
The over-the-counter market for stock such as ours is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations.

The securities of companies such as ours have historically experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations during certain periods. These broad market fluctuations and other factors, such as new product developments and trends in the our industry and in the investment markets generally, as well as economic conditions and quarterly variations in our operational results, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock.

Buying low-priced penny stocks is very risky and speculative.

Our common shares are defined as a penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 jointly with spouse, or in transactions not recommended by the broker-dealer. For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a broker-dealer must make a suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale. In addition, the broker-dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the broker-dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the Commission. Consequently, the penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to make a market in or trade our common stock and may also affect your ability to resell any shares you may purchase in the public markets.

Issuances of our stock could dilute current shareholders and adversely affect the market price of our common stock, if a public trading market develops.
 
We have the authority to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, and to issue options and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock without stockholder approval. Although no financing is planned currently, we may need to raise additional capital to fund operating losses. If we raise funds by issuing equity securities, our existing stockholders may experience substantial dilution. In addition, we could issue large blocks of our common stock to fend off unwanted tender offers or hostile takeovers without further stockholder approval.
 
 
 
- 9 -

 


 The issuance of preferred stock by our board of directors could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock. An issuance of preferred stock could result in a class of outstanding securities that would have preferences with respect to voting rights and dividends and in liquidation over the common stock and could, upon conversion or otherwise, have all of the rights of our common stock. Our board of directors' authority to issue preferred stock could discourage potential takeover attempts or could delay or prevent a change in control through merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise by making these attempts more difficult or costly to achieve.
 
Colorado law and our Articles of Incorporation protect our directors from certain types of lawsuits, which could make it difficult for us to recover damages from them in the event of a lawsuit.
 
Colorado law provides that our directors will not be liable to our Company or to our stockholders for monetary damages for all but certain types of conduct as directors. Our Articles of Incorporation require us to indemnify our directors and officers against all damages incurred in connection with our business to the fullest extent provided or allowed by law. The exculpation provisions may have the effect of preventing stockholders from recovering damages against our directors caused by their negligence, poor judgment or other circumstances. The indemnification provisions may require our Company to use our assets to defend our directors and officers against claims, including claims arising out of their negligence, poor judgment, or other circumstances.

We do not expect to pay dividends on common stock.

We have not paid any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and it is unlikely that we will pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Earnings, if any, that we may realize will be retained in the business for further development and expansion.

On March 18, 2011, the closing bid price of our common stock in the OTC Bulletin Board was $3.75 per share and we had no trading volume that day.

The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990

The Securities and Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

A purchaser is purchasing penny stock which limits the ability to sell the stock. The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stocks for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his/her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in us will be subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Securities and Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:

contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
   
contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended;
   
contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
   
contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
   
defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and
   
contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size and format) as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation;
 
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, to the customer:
 
the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
   
the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
   
the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling their securities.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation contains forward-looking statements that involve future events, our future performance and our expected future operations and actions. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “plan”, “future”, “intend”, “could”, “estimate”, “predict”, “hope”, “potential”, “continue”, or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are only our predictions and involve numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Our actual results or actions may differ materially from these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including, but not limited to, the matters discussed in this report under the caption “Risk Factors”. We urge you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward looking-statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report.
 
Results of Operations

From our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010, we generated no revenue. As a result we have no operating history upon which to evaluate our business. We had a net loss of $200,524 for this period.

Operating expenses, which consisted solely of general and administrative expenses were $68,350 for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $58,304 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Operating expenses for the period October 18, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010 was $216,891. In 2010 there were additional expenses associated with the reverse merger with Terra Mining. The major components of general and administrative expenses for any year include professional fees (legal and accounting).
 
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 we had a net loss of $64,438, compared to a net loss of $54,526 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  We had a net loss of $200,524 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010.

Due to our acquisition of TMC at the end of February, 2011, these results of operations are not indicative of what likely future results will be.  For a discussion of the operations of TMC and the anticipated costs of operations going forward, we refer you to our Form 8-K filed on March 4, 2011 in general and in particular its “Results of Operations” discussion starting on page 18.

Our accountants have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our history of net loss. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully  exploration and development the TMC properties.

As described above, under “Subsequent Event” under Item 1, WMTN acquired TMC (and its wholly owned subsidiary TGC) in a transaction that closed on February 28, 2011 (as more fully described in our Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 4, 2011).

TMC is an exploration and development Company that explores, acquires, and develops advanced stage properties. TMC has a high-grade gold system in the resource definition phase with 168,000 oz of inferred gold which in total offers potential of greater than 500,000 ounces. The property consists of 240 Alaska state mining claims covering approximately 130 square kilometers. All Government permits and reclamation plans for continued exploration through 2014 were renewed in 2010.

Additional information can be found at www.terraminingcorp.com and in the Company’s March 4, 2011 8-K filing at:

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1421601/000119983511000113/westmountain-8k.htm .

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

As of December 31, 2010, we had cash or cash equivalents of $90,586. We had an additional $42,565 in Certificates of Deposit.

Cash flows used in operating activities were $49,924 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $47,389 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Cash flows used in operating activities were $170,406 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were $127,712 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 compared to cash flows used in investing activities were $94,186 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  Cash flows used in investing activities were $105,473 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010. We purchased certificates of deposit in the amount of $181,688 during this period.

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $-0- for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.  Cash flows provided by financing activities were $366,465 from our inception on October 18, 2007 through December 31, 2010.  These cash flows were all related to sales of stock.

Due to the acquisition of TMC, we expect to need substantial capital both during calendar 2011 and through 2014.  These capital needs are described in the March 4, 2011 Form 8-K.

As a result of the raising of approximately $1.5 million in capital as part of private placements for the common stock of the Company as described in the 8-K, we believe that we have sufficient capital to fund our current level of operations through 2011.  However, depending on the timing and progress of the Terra Project, we may find it necessary or appropriate to seek additional funding before then and additional funding will almost certainly be needed during 2012.  

During this phase of development, we will continue to try to operate with minimal overhead. Our primary activity will be to manage the Terra Project and as necessary to raise additional capital. We will also be on the lookout for additional opportunities to pursue other mining projects

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements with any party.

Critical Accounting Policies

The application of GAAP involves the exercise of varying degrees of judgment. On an ongoing basis, WMTN evaluates its estimates and judgments based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. WMTN believes that of our significant accounting policies (see summary of significant accounting policies more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements set forth in this report), the following policies involve a higher degree of judgment and/or complexity.
 
Accounting Method
 The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company included $77,480 of Certificates of Deposit with a maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC subtopic 825-10 requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts payable and short-term borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
 
 
- 13 -

 

Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments, which extend the useful lives of existing property and equipment, are capitalized and depreciated. Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statements of operations.

Mineral Properties
Costs of acquiring mineral properties are capitalized by project area upon purchase of the associated claims. Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed as incurred.  When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units of production method on the basis of periodic estimates of ore reserves.

Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value.

Mine and Road Access-
The Company has access to the camp by airplane. There is no road access from camp to the project area where drilling and bulk sampling mining occurs. It is approximately 1 1/2 miles from camp to the project area.  Power generation is by diesel generator at the camp. Fuel is brought in for the generators by a cargo plane to the airstrip.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.  As of December 31, 2010 for WMTN and October 31, 2010 for TMC, there are no impairments recognized.

Alaska Reclamation and Remediation Liabilities
TMC operates in Alaska. Reclamation works in Alaska require a pool of funds from all permittees with exploration and mining projects to cover reclamation. There is a $750 per acre disturbance reclamation bond that is required for disturbance of 5 acres or more and/or removal of more the 50,000 cubic yards of material. In year one, TMC does not expect to exceed the minimum requirements and is not expected to be required to file a reclamation bond. As the project advances and feasibility justifies expansion, TMC may exceed the minimums outlined and may be required to file a reclamation plan and bond.  

The Company expects to record reclamation bond as a liability in the period in which the Company is required to pay a reclamation bond. A corresponding asset is also recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset. After the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the liability will be adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect changes in reclamation bond.

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs
All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred.  Significant property acquisition payments for active exploration properties are capitalized.  If no minable ore body is discovered, previously capitalized costs are expensed in the period the property is abandoned.  Expenditures to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on a unit of production basis over proven and probable reserves.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations.  The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold.  Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

Provision for Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes.
 
 
 
- 14 -

 

Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. As of December 31, 2010 (as of the date of this Form 8-K as well), WMTN had and has no outstanding contracts to issue common stock other than the stock issued with respect to the acquisition of TMC as discussed in this Form 8-K.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
Recent accounting pronouncements applicable to us are summarized below.
 
In April 2010,  the FASB issued  Accounting  Standard  Update  ("ASU")  2010-13, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based  Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades - a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Earlier application is permitted.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-13 to have a material effect on the financial  position,  results of operations  or cash flows of the  Company. In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No.2010-11, which is included in the Certification  under ASC 815. This update clarifies the type of embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements.  Only an embedded credit derivative that is related to the subordination of one financial instrument to another qualifies for the exemption.  This guidance became effective for the Company's interim and annual reporting periods beginning February 1, 2010.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders:

WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the period from October 18, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the period from October 18, 2007 (inception) through December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred an accumulated deficit totaling $200,524 since inception.  The Company is also in the development stage with a limited operating history.  These factors and others discussed in Note 1 raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
 
As discussed in Note 10 to the financial statements, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement and a Share Exchange Agreement during February 2011, which resulted in a change in control and a change in its business plan.

WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements

(1)    Nature of Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Nature of Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Colorado on October 18, 2007 and on this date approved its business plan and commenced operations.

The Company is a development stage enterprise in accordance with ASC 915 - “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises”.  The Company’s plan was to act as a developer of indexes that allow investors to access specific market niches or sub-markets.  Subsequent to the end of its fiscal year, the Company changed its plans materially with the acquisition of TMC, which closed on February 28, 2011, subsequent to the close of the Company’s fiscal year.  The effects of this acquisition and related transactions are described below under “Subsequent Event” (and in other appropriate locations in this filing) and in more detail in the Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2011, and available at:

 http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1421601/000119983511000113/westmountain-8k.htm.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is a development stage Company with no history of operations, limited assets, and has incurred operating losses since inception.  These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional operating capital, commence operations, provide competitive services, and ultimately to attain profitability.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

The critical accounting policies include those of the Company and TMC.

Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company included $77,480 of Certificates of Deposit with a maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.

Note Receivable
Note receivable are reported at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest.  Interest income on note receivable of $3,021 was accrued as of December 31, 2010.


 
- 23 -

 

Allowance for Loss on Note Receivable
The allowance for loss on note receivable is the amount that, in the opinion of management, is necessary to absorb probable losses inherent in the note receivable.  The allowance is determined based upon numerous considerations including local economic conditions, a review of the value of collateral supporting the note receivable and the collectability of the note receivable. As a result of the test of adequacy, required adjustments to the allowance for loan losses are made periodically by changes to the provision for loss on note receivable. As of December 31, 2010, the allowance for loss on note receivable was $0.

Mineral Properties
Costs of acquiring mineral properties are capitalized by project area upon purchase of the associated claims. Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed as incurred.  When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units of production method on the basis of periodic estimates of ore reserves.

Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value.

Mine and Road Access-
The Company has access to the camp by airplane. There is no road access from camp to the project area where drilling and bulk sampling mining occurs. It is approximately 1 1/2 miles from camp to the project area.  Power generation is by diesel generator at the camp. Fuel is brought in for the generators by a cargo plane to the airstrip.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC subtopic 825-10 requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts payable and short-term borrowings, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to seven years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments, which extend the useful lives of existing property and equipment, are capitalized and depreciated. Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statements of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.  As of December 31, 2010, there are no impairments recognized.

Alaska Reclamation and Remediation Liabilities
TMC operates in Alaska. Reclamation works in Alaska require a pool of funds from all permittees with exploration and mining projects to cover reclamation. There is a $750 per acre disturbance reclamation bond that is required for disturbance of 5 acres or more and/or removal of more the 50,000 cubic yards of material. In year one, TMC does not expect to exceed the minimum requirements and is not expected to be required to file a reclamation bond. As the project advances and feasibility justifies expansion, TMC may exceed the minimums outlined and may be required to file a reclamation plan and bond.  

The Company expects to record reclamation bond as a liability in the period in which the Company is required to pay a reclamation bond. A corresponding asset is also recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset. After the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the liability will be adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect changes in reclamation bond.

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs
All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred.  Significant property acquisition payments for active exploration properties are capitalized.  If no minable ore body is discovered, previously capitalized costs are expensed in the period the property is abandoned.  Expenditures to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on a unit of production basis over proven and probable reserves.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations.  The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold.  Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

Provision for Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes.

Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions.  The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in Colorado as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined.  The Company is not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other jurisdiction.  The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow.  Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. 

Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. As of December 31, 2010, WMTN had and has no outstanding contracts to issue common stock other than the stock issued with respect to the acquisition of TMC as discussed in this Form 8-K.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements applicable to the Company are summarized below. 
 
 
In June 2009, the FASB approved the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (the “Codification”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP to be launched on July 1, 2009. The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. 
     
 
In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-04 “Accounting for Redeemable Equity Instruments - Amendment to Section 480-10-S99” which represents an update to section 480-10-S99, distinguishing liabilities from equity, per EITF Topic D-98, Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
  
 
In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05 “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures Topic 820 – Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value”, which provides amendments to subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: 1. A valuation technique that uses: a. The quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset b. Quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets. 2. Another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of topic 820; two examples would be an income approach, such as a present value technique, or a market approach, such as a technique that is based on the amount at the measurement date that the reporting entity would pay to transfer the identical liability or would receive to enter into the identical liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     
 
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-08 “Earnings Per Share – Amendments to Section 260-10-S99”,which represents technical corrections to topic 260-10-S99, Earnings per share, based on EITF Topic D-53, Computation of Earnings Per Share for a Period that includes a Redemption or an Induced Conversion of a Portion of a Class of Preferred Stock and EITF Topic D-42, The Effect of the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     
 
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-09 “Accounting for Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. This update represents a correction to Section 323-10-S99-4, Accounting by an Investor for Stock-Based Compensation Granted to Employees of an Equity Method Investee. Additionally, it adds observer comment Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees to the Codification. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-12 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic 820 – Investment in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Assets Value Per Share (or Its Equivalent)”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-Overall, for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The amendments in this update permit, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment that is within the scope of the amendments in this update on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if the net asset value of the investment (or its equivalent) is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entity’s measurement date, including measurement of all or substantially all of the underlying investments of the investee in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments in this update also require disclosures by major category of investment about the attributes of investments within the scope of the amendments in this update, such as the nature of any restrictions on the investor’s ability to redeem its investments at the measurement date, any unfunded commitments (for example, a contractual commitment by the investor to invest a specified amount of additional capital at a future date to fund investments that will be made by the investee), and the investment strategies of the investees. The major category of investment is required to be determined on the basis of the nature and risks of the investment in a manner consistent with the guidance for major security types in U.S. GAAP on investments in debt and equity securities in paragraph 320-10-50-1B. The disclosures are required for all investments within the scope of the amendments in this update regardless of whether the fair value of the investment is measured using the practical expedient. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance for amendments to FASB Emerging Issues Task Force on EITF Issue No. 09-1 “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of a Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing” (Subtopic 470-20) “Subtopic”. This accounting standards update establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for arrangements under which own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of convertible debt issuance. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2009. Earlier adoption is not permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements. 

Subsequent Events
We adopted changes issued by ASC 855-10 “Subsequent Events”, which establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued.  See Note 10, Subsequent Event, below,

The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions.  The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in Colorado as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined.  The tax years 2008 & 2009 remain open to examination.  We are not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other jurisdiction.  The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow.  Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

promotes compliance with applicable SEC and governmental laws, rules and regulations;
   
·
deters wrongdoing; and
   
·
requires prompt internal reporting of breaches of, and accountability for adherence to, the Code of Conduct.

On an annual basis, each director and executive officer will be obligated to complete a Director and Officer Questionnaire which requires disclosure of any transactions with the Company in which the director or executive officer, or any member of his or her immediate family, have a direct or indirect material interest.

Item 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

During 2010, our officer and director did not receive any compensation for his services rendered to us, nor did he receive such compensation in the past.  As described under “Employees” under Item 1 above, as a result of the acquisition of TMC, as of February 28, 2011, the Company now has two employees and an consultant who act as officers and Directors of the Company who are paid compensation as described therein.

We entered into an agreement with SP Business Solutions (“SP”) to provide accounting and related services for the Company.  The owner, Joni Troska, was appointed our Secretary in October, 2009, and was considered to be a related party.  Fees are charged and paid on a quarterly basis.  As of December 31, 2010 an accrual of $200 has been recorded for unpaid services.  As of March, 2011, she no longer serves as the Company’s Secretary,

No retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other similar programs have been adopted by us for the benefit of our employees.  However, it is possible that the Company may do so in the future.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

Bohemian and BOCO are two companies under common control.  Mr. Klemsz, our President, has been the Chief Investment Officer of BOCO since March 2007.  Since there is common control between the two companies and a relationship with our Company President, we are considering all transactions with Bohemian related party transactions.

On January 1, 2008, we entered into a Service Agreement with Bohemian to provide us with certain defined services. These services include financial, bookkeeping, accounting, legal and tax matters, as well as cash management, custody of assets, preparation of financial documents, including tax returns and checks, and coordination of professional service providers as may be necessary to carry out the matters covered by the Service Agreement. We will compensate Bohemian by reimbursing this entity for the allocable portion of the direct and indirect costs of each employee of Bohemian that performs services on our behalf. We will receive invoices on a monthly basis from Bohemian. This Service Agreement was for the term of one year, ending December 31, 2010 but was extended to December 31, 2011. Total expenses incurred with Bohemian were $12,000 for the year ending December 31, 2010.  As of December 31, 2010 the Company did not have a balance due to Bohemian.

We entered into an agreement with SP Business Solutions (“SP”) to provide accounting and related services for the Company.  The owner, Joni Troska, was appointed our Secretary on October 15, 2009 and is considered to be a related party.  Fees are charged and paid on a quarterly basis.  As of December 31, 2010 an accrual of $200.00 has been recorded for unpaid services.

ITEM 14: PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Our independent auditor, Cordovano and Honeck LLP, Certified Public Accountants, was paid $14,210 and $9,239 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 respectively for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company's annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in its quarterly reports.

We do not have an audit committee at this time and as a result our board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee. Our board of directors evaluates the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and non-audit services.
