Sport Chalet, the retail store, is holding a scuba treasure hunt.

They have planted three gold-painted bars somewhere in the ocean, and are periodically leaving clues as to their location. Retrieve a bar and bring it to your nearest Sport Chalet and receive a $5,000, $3,000, or $1,000 gift card.

The contents began Monday, July 12, and ends on the 25th of July, so I imagine clues will begin getting more explicit. Here’s an example clue:

A treasure can be found south of where the Adriatic sunk in 1930.

Clue #2 says the largest ocean holds the treasure, so this contest might only be accessible to U.S. west coast divers.

Happy hunting!
