Start contacting some elk outfitters. For 3500-4000.00 you can get an fully guided hunt. Most drop camps iv'e seen cost around 1500.00. My family are primarily Michigan deer hunters and we did a hunt on our own in Colorado. Elk hunting is certainly more demanding than deer hunting, but if one does enough research, there is no reason you can't do it on your own. Just use your head and be courteous to other hunters out there and you will do fine. My 10 cents. The Colorado DOW web site is a great starting point.
