A sensing device and sensing process is described for indicating movement of earthen material adjacent a structure. The preferred device includes a tubular frame including a top end and a bottom end. An anchor is configured to suspend the frame from the structure with the bottom end oriented toward the earthen materials. An actuator is releasably mounted on the bottom end of the tubular frame, spanning the bottom end and configured to rest against and be supported by the earthen materials. The actuator is movable in response to movement of the earthen material relative to the structure from an inoperative position engaging and spanning the bottom end of the tubular frame to an operative position spaced from the inoperative position. A signaling device is mounted within the tubular frame and connected to the actuator. The process includes the step of attaching an anchor to the structure, and supporting the sensing device from the anchor with the actuator being movable between an inoperative position and an operative position in response to movement of the earthen material relative to the structure. The signaling device responds to movement of the actuator to the operative position to produce a signal indicating movement of the earthen material relative to the structure.
