One of the highest lakes (at 4900m of altitude) in the Annapurna region of the Himalayas.
My suggestion
If there is too much snow and you are an experienced hiker, you can go along the lake to reach Jomsom (rather than retracing your steps towards Thorung La Pass). In this case, you must bring a tent and cooking equipment.

It was but an option... But if you enjoy trekking, it's a must do! It would be a real shame to be in such close proximity to this beautiful all-white lake which sits at an altitude of 5000 metres – and ultimately miss out.
My suggestion
So, don't hesitate and miss out! Even just the beautiful route to the Tilicho Base Camp and the frozen-over river which runs below give us a fair idea of what to expect over there.
