Youth hunter in Colorado

I'm 16 years old and starting to get into elk hunting. I've always bowhunted whitetail with my dad but I'm not able to hunt with him anymore so I will have to solo hunt. I'm very physically active and I've been backpacking many times before so the solo aspect shouldn't be a problem for me. My mom and sisters and I just moved to Colorado from Tennessee. I've been on elk hunts before with my grandpa who is a guide up in WY, but my mom, sisters and I have seperated from that side of the family and my dad who I used to hunt with. I'm not looking for any handouts or anybody's honey hole so don't get the wrong idea, but any info on where to start beggining my hunt here in CO would be very much appreciated. I've spent hours on the cpw website, hunting atlas, and google earth but I'm still a little hesitant about this coming season. Any advice would be beneficial thank you!
 
Which side of the hill are you on? If you are on the west slope I may be able to help you out.
 
Where do you live? It would really help as many guys around will take kid in your situation "under their wing".

Also there is another forum called Bowsite and there are tons of dedicated archery hunters on that sight that will likely help as well.

I would also suggest joining the Colorado Bow-hunters Organization. With it you will get access to a bunch of like minded people and also updated on 3D shoots and other activities.
 
Quick search, he says he lives in those 35 square miles surrounded by reality known as boulder.

I do live in The Louisville/Lafeyette area and I'm looking at units within about 3 hours from boulder, but I'm willing to go further if need be.
