MSTAT Question

The following mstat has me confused. Doyle explains that ttl is really the
number of hops and hops is really the delay in ms. My problem is
understanding the negative values in the hop (delay) fields. Could be due to
a reverse path thing but I don't think so. All his examples has positive
values for the hop count. This is a PIM dense config.

Thanks, Gregg
