We discuss the reported detection by the MILAGRO experiment of localised hot
spots in the cosmic ray arrival distribution and the difficulty of interpreting
these observations. A model based on secondary neutron production in the
heliotail is shown to fail. An alternative model based on loss-cone leakage
through a magnetic trap from a local source region is proposed.
