Creeping Poison Ivy

It creeps along on the ground - usually at the edge of the forest or edge of a field or roadside.

Note that it's happy to co-exist with pine trees.

It's almost impossible to get rid of it, since the roots are very well established under the ground. You can rip it out, but you almost never get it all, and it comes back with attitude.
