I've never seen a packet bounce between routers due to a filter. As a
matter-o-fact, even if the host was down the router shouldn't pass the
packet back. In most cases a router only passes a packet back when it
doesn't know how to get to the network the host is on and the router has a
default gateway pointing back to the router that sent the packet to him.
Just to make sure I'm right, I asked one of our CCIE routing bubbas and he
basically agreed with me. I may only have a CCNA but I know my routing.

this type of traceroute can also result from a router that blocks the
traceroute packets. if this is the case you can still get to the machine
even though traceroute never finishes.
