I am planning on going elk hunting within the next yr in colorado. any reasonable outfitter any one knows of there?

Lonewolf, Colorado is a great place for a do-it-yourself elk hunt. Have you considered this option? No need to spend a fortune on a hunt when you could do it yourself. That said, their are many outfitters out there. You need to make the decision on what type of hunt do you want, i.e., wilderness pack in, drop camp, public ground, private rance, etc., etc. Give us some more information and I'm sure their will be plenty of people here to help you out.
