According to the BBC article entitled "Ice lake found on the Red Planet" that I just read: " A giant patch of frozen water has been pictured nestled within an unnamed impact crater on Mars."
The article also mentions that "the ice disc is located on Vastitas Borealis, a broad plain that covers much of Mars' far northern latitudes" and "The highly visible ice is sitting in a crater which is 35 km (23 miles) wide, with a maximum depth of about two km (1.2 miles)."
