Sleep on the Great Wall...?

Hey,

I'm working in Beijing the next few months and after visiting the Great Wall at Simitai I really want to go back at catch the sunrise and sunset at some point before I leave (late Nov).

Has anyone slept on the Great Wall or know of a section where it is possible?

A tour company does a 2 day/sleep over for $220USD but I have a mate from Beijing with a car and thought we should do it ourselves.

I'm hoping to make the trip in October.

Is it a goer you think? Thoughts?

cheers

...follow your bliss.
