Default conditions of trail for 24 hours of Moab?

All,

Some friends and I are thinking of doing the 24 hours
of Moab this year. However, my brother heard it's
a 15-mile lap that's almost completely sand.

Is it true?
Please tell me it's not - I can handle a little sand,
but I don't want to ride even 5 miles in the sand.
Poison Spider Mesa can be a drag when it's sandy,
and that sand is less than 1/4 of the ride.


reports?

thanks,

BFW
