Of course the ProxyCommand solution with connect/netcat is cleaner.
But if I understand correctly and it was not available then you can
still use daisy chaining for access.

  ssh -t bastion ssh yourhost
  ssh -t bastion1 ssh -t bastion2 ssh yourhost

This works for rsync as well.

  rsync -e 'ssh bastion ssh' /some/path yourhost:/some/path
  rsync -e 'ssh bastion1 ssh bastion2 ssh' /some/path yourhost:/some/path
