Potential information: This information may serve as clues to help identify the era of the photo, the people in the photo, the place where the photo was taken, or even the photo studio where it was developed. It also may not serve those purposes. The first, and often biggest, clue we have is the box number. A search for that box number will turn up all the items that where found together, which will often lead to connections we couldn't make with just one item. If you have anything you'd like to add, you can do so in the Comments.

Surroundings: No clues for me here, though the ski gear might be helpful to date it for someone.

The people: The girl looks like she's about 7 or 8 years old. The person with her looks like a young adult male.

The photo itself: Rounded edges. Back marked "This paper manufactured by Kodak". According to http://www.cycleback.com/photoguide/stamps.html "The thee (sic) lined printing "THIS PAPER / MANUFACTURED / BY KODAK" was commonly used in the 1970s-80s. If you have a photo that is advertised as being from 1979, the presence of this branding doesn't prove the specific year of 1979 but is consistent with the date." so that's a possible date.
