Todd,

http://www.nanog.org/meetings/nanog47/presentations/Sunday/RAS_Traceroute_N47_Sun.pdf

1. Can you provide source and destination IPs?

2. Do you have a return path traceroute?  This is incredibly important.

3. Can you use a utility like mtr instead, from both endspoints?

4. Is there some reason your below traceroute is in some format that
looks almost hand-written and lacks any indication of packet loss (e.g.
no "*" indicators)?  It's not that I don't believe you, it's that the
evidence needs to be presented.

If you need a destination to reach (that hopefully utilises the network
path you're seeing problems with), you can use my box: 206.125.172.42.
I do not filter ICMP.  If you provide an answer to #1 I can provide
return-path results.

But in general, testing against a site where you don't have return-path
access/visibility makes troubleshooting very difficult.  See the PDF I
linked.  :-)
