I've spent some time teaching at the Fossilised Forest on the shore platform at Inverloch, Victoria. It's quite a sight to see huge tree trunks that have been knocked over in a flooding event and preserved with the mud still clinging to the rocks. I've recently found out about an even more impressive fossilized trees - The Arizona Petrified Forest (http://www.nps.gov/pefo/index.htm). Not only does this place have a forest of preserved trees, it also has some amazing fossils too.
