What types of challenging atmospheres might exist on an ice planet?

We know that Venus has a poisonous carbon dioxide and hydrochloric acid atmosphere at a temperate of over 800 °F, but what about an ice planet? Mars is mostly freezing with a trace atmosphere, we have Titan with its nitrogen-rich atmosphere, and there's Triton with its ice vents, but I'm thinking about an ice planet with an actual, fairly thick atmosphere. What chemicals might exist and what acidic or otherwise challenging atmospheric conditions might exist on an ice world?
