Van Lyle (I found out later which was which) was a big, broad-shouldered fellow with curly blond hair and a handsome, craggy profile.

His craggy profile jutted into hot light as his large-knuckled hands attended the task of striking fresh flame to a candlewick.

He also had a nose job and a chin job that entailed the insertion of foamlike material into his jaw line to create a craggier profile.

Then it faded into itself among the rocks, its brilliant, craggy profile to the light.

Hugh sat in shadow, and watched the abbot's trenchant profile, clear, craggy and dark against a ground of shifting brightness.

From earlier explorations, centuries ago, he recalled the craggy profiles, sheer dropoffs, abrupt canyons.

Its distinctive, craggy profile, seen from the south, has been known to locals for two centuries as 'Napoleon's Nose' - it supposedly bears some resemblance to Bonaparte's hoot.
