Mars has ice caps? I thought there was no water on Mars

Ofcourse it does! Why would there be dry river streams on Mars if there was no water. That's why we're looking for bacteria on Mars. It looks like Earth, with all the organic stuff taken away. Rock and water? When Mars came the closest to Earth in 2006, I used the telescope and the icecaps were the only "details" I could see (+some creaters).
