Fort Conrad was located near modern Tiffany, New Mexico.[1] It was on the west side of the Rio Grande a little up river from the river crossing of the Rio Grande to the west bank of the river by the Camino Real de Tierra Adentro from Valverde. Because of its poor location it was later abandoned for Fort Craig in 1854.[2]
