I have some spare ingreedients and I'm looking to brew today.

I have 6 pounds LME, 3 pounds of NB Golden LME, an ounce of leaf chinook at 11.9 alfa, a pound of cascade at 7.1 alfa and some 1272 American Ale II yeast.

I think i can make a pretty killer IPA with that to work with, just looking for some hopping advice.
 
From the hip:

Bitter with the Chinook at 60, then 2oz Cascade at 15, 1, and FO. Dry hop with 4oz Cascade.
 
Assuming you end up with 5.5 gallons going into primary:

1 oz of Chinook at 60 minutes
1 oz of Cascade at 30 minutes
1 oz of Cascade at 15 minutes
1 oz of Cascade at 5 minutes
1 oz of Cascade at flame out
2 oz of Cascade dry hops

Should get you to 70 IBU...

Cheers!
