Low energy precipitated electrons have been measured with high time resolution through an auroral display by a series of high geometrical factor particle counters on a `mother-daughter' sounding rocket, launched during wintertime near 2100 LT from Andenes, Norway. sThe observations how that the 0.5-3 keV electron fluxes are anisotropically distributed, with a maximum in a direction parallel to the local geomagnetic field vector at all latitudes covered by the rocket, except within the visual auroral forms where the pitch-angle distributions are isotropic or slightly peaked in a direction normal to the geomagnetic field. The 1 and 3 keV electron fluxes are weakly anticorrelated in the vicinity of the arcs, where also the 3 keV electron flux displays a more structured variation than the 0.5 and 1 keV electron fluxes.
