You got Yellow Snow, I've not seen that for a couple of years. I thought they had stopped making it!

...... you want comments on the beer!?!

For a 10 gallon batch, it seems low on the hops. I'd start with doubling everything from 15 minutes on in. Otherwise looks good.
 
3 oz summit seems like a lot. Maybe 2oz


I'd also lose the 30 min centennial and up it at glamour or dry. Also agree double all the 20 min or less additions and maybe quadruple your dry hop. 4 oz in a 5 gal batch is common for ipa so yeah 2oz is not enough. I'd do a blend of centennial cascade summit and simcoe
