The
thickest part of the earth’s crust is under mountains. Whenever
there is a volcanic eruption, more material is poured out on the
earth’s surface from under the crust, so as the years pass the
earth’s crust is increasing slowly.





The
area of Rocky Mountains is where the earth’s crust would be
expected to be thickest.
