Rescuers say there is little hope of finding survivors
The bus was leaving the central city of the city of Manizales when it was hit by a collapsing⁴ hillside and swept into a ravine（沟壑，山涧） .

Rescuers have been searching for six others missing after the accident.

Over the past year Colombia has suffered widespread floods that have killed more than 300 people and forced 2 million from their homes.

Emergency workers have been recovering bodies from the bus, which was completely buried by mud and rock.

Some parts of Manizales have been evacuated⁵ because of the risk of further landslides⁶.

The 2010-11 rainy season in Colombia has been been the worst in Colombia's recent history, flooding huge areas and causing damage that will cost billions of dollars to repair.
