Ulum Moab, a new resort about an hour’s drive from the Arches and Canyonlands national parks, opens next week, promising visitors a chance to maximize their time in southern Utah’s red rock country. Fifty safari-inspired tents — each with a king-size bed and queen-size pullout sofa — are scattered across 200 acres, just paces from Looking Glass Rock, south of Moab. Inside, adornments and amenities include woven rugs, Pendleton blankets, Aesop bath products and West Elm furnishings, as well as a cooling fan and a wood stove. But the idea is not to spend too much time inside, particularly when there’s complimentary yoga, stargazing, on-site hiking and evening s’mores by shared fire pits, not to mention canyon-side cocktails incorporating local flora such as sage, juniper and prickly pear. For those wanting to go farther afield, the resort can arrange mountain biking, white-water rafting, rock climbing and guided national park tours. Ulum Moab’s season runs from March 30 through Oct. 23, tents from $549, ulumresorts.com.

The jewelry designer Jess Hannah Révész met the singer Natalie Mering, better known as Weyes Blood, backstage at Barcelona’s Primavera Sound festival in 2022. “I’ve been a fan of Natalie’s music for years and had even bought tickets to her L.A. show before this project started,” says Révész, who creates sculptural hoop earrings and nail polish in delightfully off-kilter colors (a brown-green called Compost, a creamy beige called Miso) under the name J. Hannah. “She mentioned an interest in making a necklace to coincide with the theme of her album, and I of course jumped at the opportunity,” says Révész. Mering’s latest album, “And in the Darkness, Hearts Aglow,” was released in November and she wanted to create merchandise with more staying power than a T-shirt. The duo settled on a heart-shaped moonstone pendant set in 100 percent recycled gold or silver. “My album was definitely written in a time of tumult,” says Mering, who worked on it during the pandemic, when she was also going through a breakup. To her, the opalescence of the necklace represents “how hope and levity can shine through the most trying times.” From $398, jhannahjewelry.com.
