Toxicodendron radicans
Leaves of three, let it be. The end leaf has notches on both sides, and the side leaves have notches on top sides.
Especially likes moist shady areas.
Poison Ivy can be a plant, shrub, or vine. In winter, when leaves are gone, look for hairy roots on vines climbing trees. Poison Ivy vines can be over one inch thick. Vines on dead fallen trees can still have the active resin.
