  An analysis of 7 years of Milagro data performed on a 10-degree angular scale
has found two localized regions of excess of unknown origin with greater than
12 sigma significance. Both regions are inconsistent with gamma-ray emission
with high confidence. One of the regions has a different energy spectrum than
the isotropic cosmic-ray flux at a level of 4.6 sigma, and it is consistent
with hard spectrum protons with an exponential cutoff, with the most
significant excess at ~10 TeV. Potential causes of these excesses are explored,
but no compelling explanations are found.
