Unless it's below zero, when I think base layer, I think thin, wicking, breathable. Polypro, silk, something like that. I have a pair of midweight fleece drawers and IMO they are almost always too warm for active outdoor sports.

Wool works fine, but poly fleece is a great mid layer. Keep in mind there are different weights of fleece too. You can choose a weight that matches the outside temp. best.
