    Answer

    Dear Switbut3rfly, good morning. You have photographed a species of Toxicodendron (poison-ivy). It looks like it may be Toxicodendron rydbergii (western poison-ivy), a species that does not climb into trees but, rather, is a small shrub. If I knew the location of the photograph, I would be able to be more confident in the answer. Best wishes.
