Default For those who elk hunt

I am dreaming of going on an elk hunt. I was just wondering to those out there have hunted, what do I need to do to make this become a reality.
What kind of money would I have to have, would it be wise to try to find public hunting grounds, or just find some type of service? I wouldn't have too great of an idea of what I am doing by myself up on a mountain. I have only hunted whitetails in the same are for 10 years. I have never gotten out of Minnesota.
Would it be better to use a gun for the first year or two, or go out with the bow and work for it. I am starting to like the idea of bow hunting way more than gun hunting just because with a rifle it doesn't seem to be too much of a challenge for the most part. Also, what state should I look into the most.
Thanks for any input guys/gals.
