Apt name for a rock climber (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cliff

(Other definitions for cliff that I've seen before include "Sir - - Richard" , "A steep rock-face on coast" , "A sheer rock-face" , "A sheer rock face, in mountain or by sea" , "stony face?" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the USA Today.
