Alishan: Not Just Trees

I figured that previous post was better off with nothing but scenery and the odd graffiti at the end, but I do have some pictures from Alishan which are more than just trees, and so here they are:
I didn't say I knew what they were, just that they were not trees.
It is a "lumber collector," a description that leaves me profoundly unsatisfied. Anybody?
This one I can do. It is a shrine, with a bell.
This, one of quite a few in the Alishan Forest Scenic Area, is a tree under repair. Apparently, this sort of tree repair is quite expensive. My question, then and now, is: "Do I still have to pay if it doesn't work?"
This could be an amazingly cute little bonsai mountain diorama, but alas, it is just a stump. A scenic stump, though.
