The intensities, angular distributions, and energy spectra of 50 keV to 5 MeV ions are examined in the several hour time interval when an interplanetary shock passed the Ulysses spacecraft. The increase in intensity, evolution of pitch angle distribution from upstream flow away from the shock to a post-shock 'pancake' distribution, the earlier arrival of more energetic particles, and the presence of non-gyrotropic effects at the time of shock passage all can be understood in terms of kinematical behavior of the particles crossing the shock.
