Glacial trough
Glacial trough is a broad bottom and steep sided U- shaped valley,
It is formed when a river valley is filled with glacier. Plucking and abrasion help to deepen and widen the depression by vertical and lateral erosion
Examples include Bujuku and Mobuku valleys on Mt Rwenzori, Gorges valley on Mt Kenya and Karanga valley on Mt Kilimanjaro.
