In steep sided, snow covered mountain valleys.
glaciated valleys
A narrow valley is a V-shaped valley, or river valley. A narrow valley has steep sloped sides that look like the letter V. They are formed by a strong stream.
The different types of river valleys include V-shaped valleys, U-shaped valleys, and canyon valleys. V-shaped valleys are typically narrow with steep sides, carved by erosion from a river. U-shaped valleys are wider and have more gradual slopes, formed by glaciers. Canyon valleys are deep and narrow with steep sides, often formed by a combination of tectonic activity and erosion.

a deep, steep-sided, narrow river valley
glaciated valleys
A steep-sided valley is typically formed through erosion by rivers or glaciers. As water flows, it cuts down into the land, creating steep sides. Glaciers can also carve out steep U-shaped valleys through the process of scouring and plucking.
Two types of stream valleys are V-shaped valleys, which are narrow and steep-sided, typically found in the upper courses of rivers, and U-shaped valleys, which are wider with a flat bottom and steep sides, usually formed by glacial erosion.

Upland river valleys have steep sides because of the erosive power of the river cutting into the surrounding land over time. The river erodes the sides of the valley, creating the steep slopes. Additionally, the geology and underlying rock composition in upland areas can also influence the formation of steep-sided valleys.
