* NOTE* the thickness of the earths layers vary from place to place, this may be due to geographical features ( mountains, hills, valleys etc) and also the height below or above sea level of that area, hence on can not give the exact thickness of each layer of the earth.

The plates are 15-200 Kilometres (10-120 miles) thick. The thickness of the plate depends primarily on its age.
The solid crust is 0-19 miles, the upper mantle is 415 miles, the lower mantle is 1365 miles, outer core is 1405 miles, and the inner core is 1520 miles. :)

How was the big sur formed?
The Big Sur region was formed by a combination of tectonic activity and erosion. It is located along the Pacific Plate boundary, where the oceanic plate is being subducted beneath the continental plate. This tectonic activity has created steep cliffs along the coast, which are then shaped by erosion from the Pacific Ocean.
