This would be especially true if you were renting somewhere mountainous when you have no mountain flying experience. My DPE touched on that quite a bit during our oral since he knew I was moving to the eastern midwest a few weeks after the checkride. He wanted to stress that my students would now be within a full tank of the mountains, so it wouldn't hurt to stress this more than I would with a student from where I was living at the time, Iowa.
