Oshozan-u Shrine is about building hammers out of logs and rockets — and the approach is a puzzle of its own.
1. First Mallet: Rail and Cube
Build the first mallet. Grab the log with Ultrahand and attach it to the cube sitting on the rail, pointing at the target on the wall.
Add a rocket to the back of the cube — check it faces the right way — then strike it. The assembly slams into the target and the door opens.

2. Chest: Rocket Shield Flight
Chest — rocket shield. The next room has a chest on a high platform. Fuse a rocket to your shield, activate it, and fly up. Inside: Zonaite Bow.

3. Second Mallet: Gear and Long Log
Build the second mallet. Back down, take the larger log and attach it to the gear.
Rocket on the end. Attach a rocket to the far end of the log and strike it. The log swings around and smashes the target, opening the way to the altar and the Light of Blessing.

Zonaite Bow
Fuse a rocket to your shield and fly to the high platform
The ice wall under the shrine cannot be climbed. Build a fire beside it with flint and wood (a Fire Fruit, Red Chuchu Jelly or fire weapon works too), throw a Hylian Pine Cone into the flames, and glide up on the updraft.
How do I hit the second target in Oshozan-u Shrine?
Attach the larger log to the gear, then attach a rocket to the far end of the log. Striking the rocket spins the whole assembly into the target. Do not use an axe — it chops the log and you start over.
Where is the chest in Oshozan-u Shrine?
On a raised platform in the second room. Fuse a rocket to your shield, activate it and fly straight up. The chest holds a Zonaite Bow.
