In January 2000, the Ulysses spacecraft observed an ICME event at 43 degrees S heliographic latitude and !4.1 AU. We use electron (E sub e > 38 keV) observations to trace the topology of the IMF embedded within the ICME. The still controversial issue of whether ICMEs have been detached from the solar corona or are still magnetically anchored to it when the arrive at the spacecraft is tackled. An in ecliptic ICME event is also presented.
