Protruding feature on a cliff (7)

I believe the answer is:

outcrop

(Other definitions for outcrop that I've seen before include "rock appearance" , "Exposed rock formation" , "Rocky feature" , "Surface eruption of rock" , "Rocks projecting from ground" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
