Can you tell us what zone you are in?

Are you 100% certain it's a vine?It looks like a hardy perennial Hibiscus to me. It's about to flower and that will tell you if it's a Hibiscus.

Are you sure it's a vine? It almost looks like a shrub from the photos.

If it is a vine, hops have similarly shaped leaves, but it's not one I've grown so I am not sure if yours is hops.

If you don't get an answer on this forum, try the Name that Plant forum which has a lot of quite knowledgeable folks contributing.

Gee, I thought at first it was a bird! Smilax does have large, gnarly roots. It also has shiny dark green leaves, but it is one native I don't want. The thorns can be brutal.

There seem to be at least three vines in that photo. Vitis in the upper, right segment, Smilax in the upper, center portion, and Berchemia scandens just right of center, at the bottom.

It could be a honeysuckle but I am leaning more towards Polygonum baldschuanicum. It would be helpful to see more of the plant and more mature leaves to be certain. As to whether it is poisonous, the honeysuckle is slightly but no more so that hundreds of other plants you probably have in your garden. More important that toxicity is the fact it will smother your Indian hawthorns if left to grow.

Virginia creeper MAY have clusters of three, four and always 5 leaves. Poison ivy never has more than three leaves...remember the old adage”leaves of three, leave them be”

It's not hops. The flower buds are Hibiscus-like and at this stage hops would have long curling tendril like growth, not straight stems. I agree it doesn't appear to be a vine.
