LaPrade Valley (85°11′S 174°36′W) is a valley in the Cumulus Hills of Antarctica with steep rock walls and ice-covered floor, about 3 nautical miles (6 km) long, extending north to McGregor Glacier, just west of Rougier Hill. It was named by the Texas Tech Shackleton Glacier Expedition (1964–65) for Kerby E. LaPrade, a graduate student at Texas Technological College, and a member of the expedition.
