It seems to show evidence for subsurface ice on Mars now, though I'm not sure if this is H2O ice or CO2 ice.

Using topography data, the research team was able to show definitive evidence of a roughly 3.5-billion-year-old shoreline with substantial sedimentary accumulation, at least 900 meters thick, that covered hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.
