HiRes has recently published mono cular measurements of the UHECR spectrum. These spectra are not consistent with a continuation of the spectrum above 1019.8 eV at the same spectral slope as observed below that energy. We fit the published spectra to a two component source model with galactic and diffuse extra-galactic sources. The extra-galactic component of the spectrum is modified for the passage of the UHECRs through the intra-galactic medium using the analytic formalism of Berezinsky et al. These models fit the spectra well because they produce the recognized features of the second knee, the ankle, and the GZK cutoff.
