Because they Have DIFFRENT names.
Continental glaciers are vast sheets of ice that cover large land areas, while valley glaciers are elongated glaciers that flow down mountain valleys. Continental glaciers are typically found in polar regions and cover large portions of Antarctica and Greenland, while valley glaciers are common in mountainous regions worldwide.
A long narrow glacier that forms between mountains is called a valley glacier. These glaciers flow down valleys, eroding the surrounding landscape as they move. Valley glaciers are common in mountainous regions around the world.
A hanging valley is a smaller valley that sits above a main glacial trough, formed by tributary glaciers that did not erode as deeply as the main glacier. A glacial trough is a U-shaped valley carved out by a glacier as it moves downhill, creating steep walls and a flat bottom.
Valley glaciers typically flow down valleys and do not spread out over large islands or continents. They are confined to the topography of the land and move under the influence of gravity. Ice sheets, on the other hand, can cover large landmasses like islands and continents.
A glacial valley becomes U-shaped through the process of glacial erosion. As a glacier moves down a valley, it erodes the land beneath it through a combination of abrasion and plucking. Abrasion occurs when the glacier grinds and sculpts the valley walls and floor, while plucking involves the glacier picking up and removing rock fragments. Over time, these erosional processes create a deep and wide valley with steep, straight sides characteristic of a U-shape.
A U-shaped valley is a geological formation formed by the erosive action of a glacier. Ice moving downhill carves out a broad, U-shaped valley with steep sides and a flat bottom. These valleys are characteristic of areas that have been shaped by glacier activity.
It is a valley glacier
you have to use toure brian not search it

i dont know like a valley
The glacier was huge.A v-shaped valley is a valley that was shaped by a glacier.
Valley glaciers typically flow down valleys and do not spread out over large islands or continents. They are confined to the topography of the land and move under the influence of gravity. Ice sheets, on the other hand, can cover large landmasses like islands and continents.
