Dean,
Since Dunn Benchmark is listed on the USGS topo map as 9,925 feet in elevation and since Bull Mountain is widely accepted as being higher than Dunn Benchmark, I would suggest using the elevation listed in the guidebook, "High In Utah" as the corrected elevation for this peak page. Instead of using the contour elevation of 9,920 feet, the highpoint elevation should be 9,934 feet.
Just as an FYI, Bull Mountain and the cirque are on private land (though the road behind the cirque is an easement). The owner let us know that they're happy to have anyone who wants to visit to do so, but asked that vehicles stay on the established roads and that no one climb or ski / snowboard there without permission. He told us they they were climbing themselves one day when someone pushed rocks off the cliff likely for fun, and it came close to hitting one of their party. He said feel free to hike the property and drive on the established roads, but to please be respectful.
