WUHAN -- Eleven travelers are lost in a forest in Central China's Hubei province, local authorities said on Friday.

The travelers, photographers from East China's Zhejiang province, lost contact at 8:20 pm on Thursday in an unpopulated area of Shennongjia Forest District, said firefighters in Hubei, who are searching for them.

Their last known location was on a steep hillside, and heavy rain has made rescue efforts extremely difficult, a rescuer said.
