One more from Abraham Lake.

The bubbles in the ice at Abraham are created by methane gas released by organic material at the bottom of the lake - it gets trapped in the ice as the ice freezes. You wouldn't be able to see the bubbles if the lake was covered in snow so part of what makes it a perfect place to photograph is the fierce wind that whistles across the lake almost constantly - both clearing the snow and polishing the ice. It was icy cold and windy the morning we were there, but worth it.
