That would vary depending on where you are. Its thicker in the mountains than where it is flat.

On average the crustal thickness for continental crust is 35 kilometres (meauring from sea level down). The highest point in Georgia is 1.46 kilometres high, so you you could say the maximum thickness is 36.46 kilometres thick. (or 22.66 miles)
