Removing lower whisker in boxplot to see the effects of the high values

Good Afternoon- I was wanting to alter the boxplot to remove the lower whisker, both the whisker line and staple just on the lower end. Is there a way to do this? As my code is currently: boxplot(log_loads~ind,data=nfmaum, horizontal=TRUE, notch=T, outline=FALSE, whisker=0, main="Maumee River Near Future Climate Scenarios", ylab="Log Load",xlab="Climate Scenarios")
If you altered the value in what is passed from `boxplot.stats` to `bxp` so the lower whisker value was the same as the lower hinge value The lower whisker would merge into the hinge. `boxplot` returns those stats-values invisibly, so you just assign to an object name, make your changes and pass back to bxp.
I just want to better see the medians and high end tail.
