A second mechanism is having a glacier coming down a broader slope and cutting through an existing ridge. (Your ridgeline may begin with a triangular cross-section, or may have developed one from the glacial processes mentioned above.) At some point, ice from a higher elevation will flow across or through your ridgeline (just as a river would), eroding a gorge through the ridge.
Inevitably, given enough material to work from, and even with a relatively smooth starting surface, the erosive power of ice will give you steep slopes and some pyramidal structures.
