Best Answer

Mars' ice caps are made of water and water doesn't melt until 33.0579 degrees Fahrenheit and the average temperature on mars is -80 degrees Fahrenheit, for most of the planet.
BUT...
The Ice Caps are located at the southern most point of mars, where the average temperature is -250 degrees Fahrenheit.
