Planning on brewing the extract version of this Long Trail Traditional IPA Clone that I found.

Type: Extract w/ Specialty Grains
OG: 1.058
FG: 1.015
IBU: 72.8
ABV: 5.6%

Grains:
1lb Crystal (30L) Malt
1/2lb Carapils Malt
Steep at 152°F for 30 minutes

Boil:
6.6lbs of Briess Golden Light Liquid Extract
1lbs of Briess Golden Light Dry Extract

Hops:
1oz Nugget 60 Minutes
1/2oz Nugget last 30 minutes
3oz Cascade last 15 minutes
2oz Cascade last 10 minutes
1oz Cascade last 2 minutes
2oz Cascade dry hop (I may sub Amarillo since I have some on hand, it similar, and I'm a fan)

Yeast:
Wyeast 1272 (American Ale II)

I was planning on using a 4 gallon boil. Any suggestions on the extract? Add all up front, or some as a late addition? Big hops bill so I'll have to adjust accordingly if I do a late addition, I'm assuming or IBUs will be 100+. Lastly, any suggestions or tweaks you would recommend on this? It's only my third batch ever so I'm open to any suggestions or corrections.
