Is this frozen lake moaning?

I’ve heard some pretty interesting audio captured with our voice recorders over the past few years, but this is one of the more unusual samples to come my way. One of our users who does some ambient field recording brought this unusual clip to my attention.

The audio was captured at Lola Montez Lake in Tahoe National Forrest. On cold winter days the lake is said to moan. A few folks went out to hear for themselves and came up with this audio captured on an Olympus WS-710M. I wonder exactly what is causing the ice to resonate this way.
