## Probable cause

The pilot’s continued flight into moderate to severe icing conditions, including supercooled large droplets, over mountainous terrain, which resulted in a loss of control and impact with terrain. Contributing to the accident was the National Weather Service forecast that underestimated the area and intensity of the icing conditions and the lack of Alaska-specific icing graphics readily accessible to the pilot for preflight planning.
