I just got back from camping. It was hot during the day and cold at night. I slep with a light fleece blanket the first night and while I did not get really cold I did have terrible leg cramps in the large muscles of the thigh. The next night I used the fleece and added to it another two blankets and a quilt. No cramps occured. The second night was a few( maybe 5 max) degrees warmer.
