  Gamma-ray emission from large structures is useful for tracing the
propagation and distribution of cosmic rays throughout our Galaxy. For example,
the search for gamma-ray emission from Giant Molecular Clouds may allow us to
probe the flux of cosmic rays in distant galactic regions and to compare it
with the flux measured at Earth. Also, the composition of the cosmic rays can
be measured by separating the gamma-ray emission from hadronic or leptonic
processes. In the case of emission from the Fermi Bubbles specifically,
constraining the mechanism of gamma-ray production can point to their origin.
HAWC possesses a large field of view and good sensitivity to spatially extended
sources, which currently makes it the best suited ground-based observatory to
detect extended regions. We will present preliminary results on the search of
gamma-ray emission from Molecular Clouds, as well as upper limits on the
differential flux from the Fermi Bubbles.
