I have an 1.068 SG IPA I'm fermenting with WLP001. I have been steady in my chamber at 66 for 5 days with good activity. My ferment temp dropped to 59F this morning cause of a little cold snap. Any worries with this particular yeast and stalling the ferment at that temp? Cheers and thanks.

It's not ideal, obviously, but many folks here (not me, altho' I'm not against it) regularly ferment 001 in the high 50s. May slow 'er down a tad, depending on the phase they were in, but all else being equal I think you'll be fine!
