Give it a few years, then the new tranche of Munro baggers will have started on the Corbetts
I don't know if the corbett bagger numbers will ever reach that of the munros but far more people doing them together than used to be the case, but I doubt if anyone has done the corbetts before the munros.
There are many corbett parking areas that are used by munro goers too. Some places fill up the night before with the campervanner/roadside camper type people.
Parked at the end of road Loch Arkaig 3 times last year. The car park was full on one occassion at around 5 am if I recall correctly. Almost certainly full overnight. It's got space for a few cars and campervans, Many bothy type folk and Knoydart expeditions starting from there, also several munros and corbetts.
So sometimes it doesn't matter how early you are. North Face car park also has many overnighter camping in car park etc. and can fill real early.
