Abstract: The High Resolution Fly’s Eye (HiRes) made observations of ultra high energy cosmic rays between May 1997 and April 2006. It measured the energy spectrum, anisotropy, and composition in these cosmic rays. It also looked for signs of neutrinos and other exotic events. In addition, it measured the ultra high energy proton to air cross-section forging a link to accelerator measurements. We briefly review some of these measurements, concentrating on the spectrum, anisotropy and composition.
