We describe energetic ion data obtained during 2002-03 by the Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) instrument on Voyager 1 (V1). Our fo cus is the period ˜2002.5-2003.2, during which V1 moved from 85 to 88 AU, while at 34N° latitude. Starting in mid-2002, particle intensities at V1 showed a large rapid increase that remained at highly elevated levels until early 2003. The unique nature of the V1 data and absence of comparable structures in the Voyager 2 data [2,3] suggests that the V1 event is associated with the heliospheric termination shock (TS).
