The pilot of the turbo prop airplane reported that, after starting the airplane with a ground power unit (GPU) he exited the airplane. He disconnected the GPU and removed the wheel chocks. The airplane started to roll down an incline. He jumped into the airplane through the aft cargo door and attempted climb into the pilot's seat, to no avail. He pulled the fuel to cut off and the airplane impacted the trees.
