Sawbones referring to being a surgeon reminds me that the original Gillette hospital was in Phalen Park.

Also makes me think perhaps of two paths has one been recently attempted to be cleared?

David,

 

I remember that in years past, if our numbers and/or parks don’t change we didn’t need to send them to you again  Am I remembering correctly or has that changed ?

I was thinking something similar...

Clue 1 (rouse us, what excuse to dawdle, gather your kin) sounds like "get up and get out there!"
Clue 2 (beseech ye to venture out of doors, traipse through snow) again "please get up, get out, don't step on things while doing so!"
Clue 3 (take off your warm cap, and study a map) "don't need a hat just yet, stay in and study" - total opposite.

A few things in these clues that puzzle me: In clue #1 it says to be sure to bring a hot bottle, presumably a hot water bottle to help keep you warm while you are out for long periods in the cold weather. But then in clue #3 it says to "doff' (remove) your warm cap, instead of put on (don) your warm cap, to presumably protect your noggin.  Why would you take off your cap, unless you are back in your car or someplace warm ( a warm shelter nearby?) so you can study your map? And, maybe hot bottle is just a reference of a bottle of hot sauce, maybe a billboard or nearby restaurant/shop with tabasco or sriracha sauce displayed? Be careful of what flora you stomp maybe means the medallion is under some frozen leaves again.
The Twins in clue#1 might have a double meaning: the baseball Twins and the twin water towers/reservoirs at Highland.

Dog eared map might refer to a park with a dog park
I agree that genuflect means the finder will have be on their knees to find/retreive the treasure. So not just on the ground, but maybe tucked up underneath the roots of the tree shown in the deed is done video
