Now that I think about it, another way of making a pixel mask, with just
the country boundaries, might be something like this.

cgDisplay, 720, 360
cgErase, 'black'
cgMap_Set, /Cylindrical, Position=[0,0,1,1], /NoBorder, /NoErase
file = Filepath(SubDir=['resource','maps','shape'], "country.shp")
usa = cgExtractShape(file, 'CNTRY_NAME', 'UNITED STATES')
cgDraw_ROI, usa, Color='white'
mask = TVRD() NE 0

Cheers,

David
