Carving Desert Canyons is the second studio album by American instrumental progressive metal band Scale the Summit. It was released on February 17, 2009, through Prosthetic Records. The album was self-produced by the band and Tom Beaujour. It is the band's first studio release with the label.[1][2][3] The cover art of this album is taken from The Wave, a sandstone rock formation in Arizona. The album's cover art was taken by a local Houston photographer, who sent them his portfolio of pictures to choose from; the eventual cover art was the first photograph Chris Letchford saw in the portfolio.[4]
By contrast to their first album, Letchford described Carving Desert Canyons as "a lot more organized than their debut, in addition to being better produced as it was funded by an actual record label."[4]
