It all depends on how comfortable you want to be.
Trips can range from 10k(private land guided monster elk) to 1k(public land camping in a tent roughing it). I'm looking too do it in the 2-3k. Basically roughing it in a tent, public land, etc....however I realize I am making a big investment on the trip, and if I can increase my odds greatly of bagging an elk I would entertain spending more money to do so. It's that whole cost to benefit ratio....looking into drop camps(seems like a great idea to me), the camp would cost you 1500. That would include them bringing you out and the tent lodging out there. Other costs would be tag 400-700, but could be more depending on what animals you'll be hunting. Game processing and meat handling, food, travel, equipment. You can get to 3k QUICK.
