In November 2000 the Ulysses spacecraft reached the southernmost heliographic latitudes (-80 deg) for the second time in its 10 year cruise of the 3D heliosphere. The circumstances differ significantly though from its last passage during the solar minimum, which was dominated by uniform polar coronal hole flow. This time, highly variable elemental and charge state composition features are observed in the solar wind. Firstly, we present the complete, up-to-date SWICS dataset of the southern polar pass into the early stages of Ulysses' solar maximum fast latitude scan that is currently in progress. Secondly, connections of Ulysses/SWICS observations to quasi-stationary, transient, and corotating structures will be pointed out and highlighted with remote sensing observations of the solar corona.
