Mare Frigoris is located just north of Mare Imbrium, and 
stretches east to north of Mare Serentatis. The mare is
in the outer rings of the Procellarum basin. The basin 
material surrounding the mare is of the Lower Imbrian
epoch, while the eastern mare material is of the Upper
Imbrian epoch, and the western mare material is of the
Eratosthenian epoch. 

The mare appears as darker grey material in the lower 
section of the photo below. The dark circular feature 
just to the south of Frigoris is the crater Plato. You can 
just make out the crater Aristoteles as a lighter grey
circular feature to lower right-center of the photo, and
south of Frigoris.
