Anyone know if you can get on the lift in Breckenridge, CO w/o a brake?
Thanks for your help.

Your brakes are built in. Don't let them tell you otherwise. Have them
give you any braking test they come up with, and you should pass easily.
It is impossible to coast on your unicycle (on a mountain at least).
Therefore the need for brakes is much less that it would be on even a
singlespeed bike. You are a fixed gear, and all you have to do is not
pedal. Even if you take your feet off the pedals, you'll stop pretty
darn fast (and painfully)!
